Nico Paz scores a brilliant individual goal to extend Como's lead after carrying the ball forwards and sliding the ball across goal at the far post. Douvikas earlier doubled the lead in the fifty-second minute by running into open space between defenders De Ligt and Maguire to finish superbly. Manchester United makes a double substitution at half-time, bringing on Diallo and Baleba while taking off Matheus Cunha and Andrey Santos. Managerial changes see Bruno Fernandes taken off for Zirkzee in the sixty-seventh minute, while Kaiki Bruno replaces Da Cunha and Caqueret comes on for Baturina. Stats show Como dominating with sixteen attacks compared to just five for United.
