Manchester United stunned Paris Saint Germain (PSG) in France after staging a breathtaking comeback.

The Red Devils defeated the Les Parisiens 3
- 1 to overturn a first leg 2 - 0 loss at Old Trafford.

Marcus Rashford scored a crucial injury-time penalty to help seal the victory for Man Utd as the English side reach quarter-finals after scoring more away goals.

Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku opened scoring for the visitors in the 2nd minute, PSG levelled up in the 12th minute via Bernat, few minutes later Lukaku put Man Utd ahead again.

Rashford thumped home the VAR-awarded spot-kick in the 94th minute after Diogo Dalot's speculative shot struck Presnel Kimpembe on the arm.

The odds were stacked against United in Paris, but they became the first team in Champions League and European Cup history, at the 107th time of asking, to overcome a 2-0 or greater home first-leg deficit.

The draw for the quarter-finals takes place on Friday, 15 March.
