Manchester United moved into the UEFA Champions League last 16 last night thanks to two late goals against Villarreal in Michael Carrick’s first game  as caretaker manager.

Cristiano Ronaldo maintained his record of scoring in every game in this season’s competition when he lifted the ball over goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli in the 78th minute, after Fred had dispossessed Etienne Capoue.

Jadon Sancho then sealed the victory in injury-time when he blasted a shot that went in off the underside of the crossbar.

United, who sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Sunday are top of Group F with one round of matches left.

However, they were indebted to goalkeeper David de Gea, who produced two superb one-handed saves, one in each half, to keep out well-struck efforts from Manu Trigueros when it was goalless.

Elsewhere, Robert Lewandowski scored for the ninth successive Champions League game as Bayern Munich maintained their 100% record in Group E against Dynamo Kyiv.

Poland striker Lewandowski gave Bayern the lead with an overhead kick after the ball fell loose in the area.

Kingsley Coman, who scored the winner in the 2020 final against Paris St-Germain, slotted home the second in the 2-1 victory.

Denys Harmash scored Kyiv’s first goal of this year’s tournament but they were unable to find an equaliser.
