Manchester United, Tottenham and Rangers secured wins on the final night of the league phase to seal direct passage to the UEFA Europa League round of 16.

UEFA.com rounds up the Matchday 8 action.

FCSB 0-2 Manchester United

Highlights: FCSB 0-2 Man Utd

The Red Devils posted another win to become the only side to make it through the inaugural league phase unbeaten. Alejandro Garnacho and captain Bruno Fernandes both hit the woodwork for Ruben Amorim's team before Diogo Dalot converted a Kobbie Mainoo cross from close range on the hour. FCSB almost hit back immediately, but Daniel Bîrligea was denied by the crossbar, with Mainoo then making sure of the victory via a perfectly placed effort.

Tottenham 3-0 Elfsborg

Highlights: Tottenham 3-0 Elfsborg

Three second-half goals ensured a top-eight finish for Ange Postecoglou's side. Dane Scarlett came off the bench to nod the hosts in front before setting up 19-year-old Oyindamola Ajayi for a goal on his Spurs debut to double their advantage. Mikey Moore, 17, wrapped up the victory with a superb individual effort (his first for the club), setting off on a mazy run and executing a low shot in added time.

Rangers 2-1 Union SG

Highlights: Rangers 2-1 Union SG

Rangers progressed directly into the round of 16 as the final top-eight team courtesy of a narrow victory. Belgian midfielder Nicolas Raskin headed the hosts side in front and Václav Černý added a fine second to provide a measure of security, which proved crucial when Kevin Mac Allister pulled one back late on. Philippe Clement's men ultimately clung on to secure a last-eight berth by virtue of their overall goal difference.
