The man in form in the Red Devils squad Scott McTominay scored the 1st goal in the match in the 28th minute after Bruno Fernandes’ assist. However, the Blades were able to tie the clash before the end of the 1st half when Oliver McBurnie converted a penalty in the 34th minute.
The game was even until the 77th minute when Diogo Dalot took the initiative in his own hands and scored a gragger for Man. United took the lead again, and they kept it until the end. That was the club from Old Trafford’s 1st back-to-back victories this campaign in the league.
Manchester United also won a 10th game in a row vs. newly-promoted teams.
