Benfica 1 - 1 MU

The so called 'older' United just doesn't cut it any more. Dreadful performances from Fletcher, Carrick, Valncia and Park saw United escape a defeat in Lisbon.

A stunning 42nd-minute equaliser from veteran Ryan Giggs earned United a 1-1 draw in Lisbon after Oscar Cardozo had fired Benfica ahead in their Group C opener.
