Samu Omorodi♚on's double looked like it had secured Porto the win, but Maguire came off the bench to score in the 91s🍬t minute.
Galeno tested Andre Onana with a po༒werful first-time shot two minutes in, but Marcus Rashford 🃏would open the scoring five minutes later at the other end, cutting inside from the left to drill his low shot under Diogo Costa's leg.
He then set up Rasmus Hojlund for their second in the 20th minute, and 🔯Costa again sho🌌uld have done better as the shot went through his hand.
Porto showed their fight soon after, though. Onana sprung brilliantly to keep out Noussair Mazraoui's inadvertent header, but Pepe was alert, stooping to nod home from closꦐe range.
Samu got his first in the 34th minute, takಌing advantage of some slack defending as he leapt high to thump his he🐎ader over the goalkeeper, and got his second after the break, rifling a powerful shot into the top corner.
It looked like United's hopes of a result were over in the 81st minute as Fernandes received a red card for the second consecutive match. He got his first booking in the first half, recei๊ving his marching orders in the 81st for a high boot in the box.
However, the Red Devils kept pushing for an equaliser, and it came from a corner, with Maguire guiding Chr🍎istian Eriksen's cross into the top-left corner.
Data Debrief: Ten Hag gets lucky
It was a game that summed up United's season in some wa🧔ys. They started the game on the front foot, getting two quickfire goals to put themselves in control only to drop their concentration.
Since♉ Erik ten Hag joined the club in 2022, no Premier League club has conceded three or more goals in a match more times in all competitions than United (24).
In fact, they are winless in theﷺir last five matches in European competition (D3 L2) despite leading by 2+ goals in threeඣ of them.
Fernandes' red card against⛄ Tottenham may have been overturned, but this one will stand. Having not received a single red card in any 🍌of his first 241 appearances for United in all competitions, he has now received two in his last two.
