Villarreal were looking pretty solid with their 1-0 lead in this game, so it was always going to come down to the old cliche of a mistake, a bit of luck or a moment of magic to get Man United level.
In the end it was a bit of luck that came their way as the ball bounced the way of Edinson Cavani, and of course it was him who would drag United back into the game:

There was a big wait for VAR to comet hrough with their check as it was a tight call, but it’s game on and United will fancy their chances of going on to win now.
