Manchester United roared back to life with a convincing 2-0 victory over PAOK Saloniki in the Europa League Round of 16 second leg. The win at Old Trafford secured a 3-0 aggregate victory and a place in the quarter-finals.

It wasn't all sunshine and roses for United. PAOK, a side known for their defensive grit, came out fighting. They pressed high, forcing United to fight for every inch of possession. It was clear that this wasn't going to be a walk in the park.

However, the Red Devils' experience and attacking prowess eventually shone through. Bruno Fernandes, the midfield maestro, orchestrated the opening goal with a pinpoint through ball that found Anthony Martial, who slotted it home with a cool finish. The crowd erupted, and the pressure was off.

After the break, United continued to control the game. They piled on the pressure, creating chance after chance. Finally, in the 74th minute, the second goal arrived. It was a moment of brilliance from Marcus Rashford, who cut inside from the left flank and unleashed a powerful shot that found the back of the net. The goal was a testament to his incredible talent and commitment.

The victory was a much-needed boost for United, who had been struggling for consistency in recent weeks. It proved that they are still a force to be reckoned with in Europe. This win sends a clear message to the rest of the continent: The Red Devils are back!

The quarter-final draw awaits. The Red Devils are ready to face any challenge, and the rest of Europe knows it. Let's go, United!
