LYON, France :A stoppage-time finish from Rayan Cherki earned Olympique Lyonnais a dramatic 2-2 draw with Manchester United in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final on Thursday.
United goalkeeper Andre Onana was the centre of attention in the Groupama Stadium after his pre-match war of words with Lyon midfielder Nemanja Matic, and the pressure told as his mistake gifted Thiago Almada a 25th-minute opener.
A timely equaliser right on halftime from Leny Yoro, the young centre-back's first goal for United since joining in the close season, levelled things up.
United pounced on the counter two minutes from time, with Joshua Zirkee's header seemingly securing them a fine away win but Cherki, with the last kick of the game, broke the visitors' hearts.
