Bruno Fernandes secured a dramatic stoppage-time winner as Manchester United defeated Rangers 2-1, boosting their Europa League campaign. Despite a late equalizer from Cyriel Dessers, Fernandes' winner elevated United to fourth place. Meanwhile, Lazio, Frankfurt, and Tottenham secured important victories in the tournament.

Manchester United took a significant stride towards the Europa League round of 16 after Bruno Fernandes netted a crucial stoppage-time goal, clinching a 2-1 victory against Rangers. The captivating finish ensured United's advancement to fourth position, despite being challenged by an 88th-minute equalizer from Cyriel Dessers.

Ruben Amorim's squad, which recently faced criticism following a defeat to Brighton, found a much-needed morale boost with this win.

Lazio remains unbeaten, joining the last 16 after defeating Sociedad, and Frankfurt ensured a playoff spot with goals from Can Uzun and Hugo Ekitike.

Elsewhere, Son Heung-min's double secured a narrow 3-2 triumph for Tottenham over Hoffenheim, offering relief to manager Ange Postecoglou. Tottenham is now positioned for a round of 16 spot. Ajax, however, suffered an unexpected defeat to RFS, despite it not being enough to save the Latvian team from elimination.
