Manchester United Beats CSKA Moscow to Win Champions League Group A

Manchester United advanced to the 2017-18 UEFA Champions League knockout phase with a 2-1 victory over CSKA Moscow on Tuesday at Old Trafford in Manchester, England.

Romelu Lukaku and Marcus Rashford scored just over a minute apart in the second half to help United erase a 1-0 half-time deficit. The Red Devils' win, which extended their unbeaten streak at home to a club-record 40 games across all competitions, also earned them the top spot in Group A with a 5-0-1 record.

Meanwhile, the result at the Theatre of Dreams paired with Basel's 2-0 win against Benfica in the other Group A fixture means the Russian side will be dropped to the UEFA Europa League.
