SHEFFIELD UNITED 1-2 MANCHESTER UNITED: After a first half that saw the hosts have the better of proceedings but prove unable to make the most of their opportunities, Diogo Dalot scored the winner for the Red Devils in the second half at Bramall Lane
Manchester United put what Harry Maguire labelled "a really sad day" behind them to claim victory over rock bottom Sheffield United.
Substitute Alejandro Garnacho could have wrapped things up with a third late on, on a night where Maguire took the man of the match award, as United claimed back-to-back wins for the first time in the league this season.1. McTominay's interesting night The hero against Brentford with his late heroics, McTominay's reward for that was a start here deputising for Casemiro with the Brazilian still in his homeland after international duty.
2. Dalot's delight Who had Diogo Dalot scoring from 25 yards to give the Red Devils victory on their card? Congratulations if so. His players are playing for him, and you can't say that they aren't organised. They weren't bad defensively here and also created, in the first half at least, a number of chances.
It's a real mystery what is going on with him. Because he scored 30 goals last term and was on absolute fire, scored a wonderful individual effort at Arsenal in September and belted confidently past Gianluigi Donnarumma in the win over Italy in midweek... yet he's now only scored once in 11 games so far this term for his club.
