Barcelona produced a spectacular fightback in an action-packed second half as the hosts restricted the Marcus Rashford-inspired Manchester United to a 2-2 draw at Camp Nou in the first leg of their Europa League round of 32 tie. 

While Marcus Alonso headed Xavi's side into the lead in the 50th minute, the 25-year-old English footballer, quickly levelled it with a goal 2 minutes later. Rashford has now scored 22 goals in the ongoing season for Manchester United. 

Rashford then forced an own goal from Jules Kounde within the next 9 minutes putting the visitors on course for a thrilling victory, however, Raphinha's found the net in the 76th minute to leave the play-off tie in a fine balance ahead of their next week's meet at Old Trafford.
