FT: Manchester United 3 CSKA Moscow 3
Manchester United sealed a place in the Champions League knock-out stage thanks to Antonio Valencia's deflected injury-time equaliser against CSKA Moscow.
Alan Dzagoev (25) had stunned Old Trafford with a fierce shot before Michael Owen levelled just four minutes later.
However goals either side of the break from Milos Krasic and Vasili Berezutsky put the Russians firmly back in the driving seat.
United were denied a penalty when Darren Fletcher appeared to be fouled by Berezutsky and Federico Macheda rattled the post with a fantastic header.
The Reds laid siege to the visitors' goal with substitute Wayne Rooney and Macheda both going close.
The breakthrough finally came when Paul Scholes (86) headed home and Valencia's (90) late deflected shot, that flew in off Georgi Schennikov, sealed a place in the last 16 before Deividas Semberas was sent off just before the final whistle.
