Manchester United booked their place in the last 16 of the UEFA Europa League (UEL) with a 2-0 win at FCSB, with their fourth consecutive win in the competition consigning the hosts to the knockout play-offs.
Lazio, the only team to qualify for the round of 16 with a game to spare, suffered their first defeat of the campaign, losing 1-0 at Braga.
Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot credited the half-time introductions of Alejandro Garnacho and Amad for providing the spark they needed.
Diogo Dalot was very impressed with Kobbie Mainoo's performance in the No.10 position in Man United's 2-0 win over FCSB.
The deadlock came from a quick throw in from Amad who found Christian Eriksen. The Dane slipped Kobbie Mainoo into the box and he squared to Diogo Dalot for a tap in. Garnacho then had his say in the second goal. He bombed forward on the left, received the ball from Mainoo then sent it back to the midfielder who side-footed home.
