RB Leipzig achieved a heroic 3: 2 victory over Manchester United on the final matchday six of the Champions League group stage. Therefore, the Germans qualified for the round of 16, as only success would guarantee them advancement.
Until the 69th minute, Julian Nagelsman’s former students led quietly 3-0 after goals from Angelino, Aidara and Kuyvert. In the final 10 minutes, the Red Devils scored two quick goals through Fernandes and Maguire, but that wasn’t enough as the English needed at least a draw to get out of their group.
Thus, PSG will advance Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s former student for his best performance in direct matches between the two teams and the Englishman will play in the Europa League in spring.
In the second Angelinho ran down the left wing and intercepted a Zabitzer cross from the right wing, finding the result with a solid diagonal shot.
