Barcelona, Man United put on a show in Europa League clash that sets stage nicely for second leg

BARCELONA, Spain -- Barcelona and Manchester United played out a pulsating clash at Camp Nou to draw 2-2 in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie.

United will be the happier of the two teams as the tie switches to Old Trafford next week, despite at one stage leading 2-1 thanks to another Marcus Rashford goal -- his 11th of 2023 in all competitions so far -- and Jules Kounde putting through his own net. After an even first half, Marcos Alonso put Barcelona ahead in the second half before United's fight back.
