Did Man United's thrilling Champions League comeback save Michael Carrick from being fired?

MANCHESTER, England -- Matheus Cunha propelled Manchester United to one of the club's greatest European fightbacks by scoring twice before being sent off in a dramatic 3-2 win against AS Roma on Tuesday in the Champions League. While the win may end up being important for United to advance, it immediately boosted Michael Carrick's hopes of keeping his job as manager at Old Trafford. With United trailing 2-0 after 17 minutes against Roma, Carrick's grip on his job looked to have been completely loosened with the home side heading to a fifth defeat in six games.
