Man Utd beat Roma - the other great Champions League comebacks

Manchester United come from two goals down to beat Roma 3-2 - but what are the other best fightbacks in Champions League history?

Manchester United were 2-0 down after just 17 minutes against Roma

Manchester United came from two goals down to beat Roma in a dramatic Champions League tie on Tuesday to give manager Michael Carrick a much-needed boost as he fights to save his job.

Things were looking bleak at Old Trafford when his side found themselves 2-0 down after just 17 minutes against their Italian visitors, who had not lost in their 10 Serie A games this season.

A nine-game winless run had left Carrick's position increasingly precarious and a poor start left United facing another damaging defeat.

But they stormed back in the second half with a show of character and class that had been missing in a troubled campaign where they had previously won just twice in all competitions.
