#2 Mkhitaryan’s goal a moment of magic in a tiresome first half
With chances hard to come by for both the teams in the first half, the Armenian’s goal came out of nowhere.
Jones played a delightful long ball, which Fellaini chested down and rolled it into Ibrahimovic’s path. The Swede held off a defender to play a cut-back into the box which the former Dortmund midfielder pounced on and rifled the ball in the back of the net.
This away goal might play a big part going into the second leg of the tie and Mkhitaryan will be content as well to get on the scoresheet after returning from a short-term injury.
