Maguire helps Ten Hag by rescuing Man United in Porto: Match ended 3 all…as  Bruno Fernades sent off

PORTO, Portugal — Harry Maguire threw Erik ten Hag a lifeline as Manchester United manager with an equaliser in stoppage time that secured a 3-3 draw in the UEFA Europa League against FC Porto. This happened after the Premier League side had surrendered a two-goal lead and had captain Bruno Fernandes sent off for a second successive game.

Bruno Fernandes was sent off for the second time in as many games as Manchester United drew 3-3 with Porto in the Europa League on Thursday.

The Portugal international was dismissed for two bookable offenses at Estadio do Dragao — just days after he was shown a straight red for a dangerous tackle in United’s 3-0 loss against Tottenham on Sunday.

A three-match suspension for that sending off was later overturned on appeal, but he was given his marching orders again as United battled to avoid another defeat against Porto.
