Manchester United returned to Old Trafford with a hard-fought three points following their humiliating Carabao Cup exit to fourth-tier Grimsby, securing their first Premier League win of the season in a thrilling 3-2 victory over Burnley.
In a match reported by The Independent, Ruben Amorim, already under immense pressure in the United dugout, will feel some relief after his side edged past the newly promoted Clarets.
The Portuguese manager dropped keeper Andre Onana following the cup defeat, while new signing Benjamin Sesko remained on the bench.
Summer acquisition Bryan Mbeumo netted his first top-flight goal for the Red Devils, with Bruno Fernandes ultimately sealing the win from the penalty spot in the dying moments of the match.
Concerns arose as Matheus Cunha limped off with an injury, but Burnley performed admirably, twice coming from behind and only narrowly losing after conceding the decisive spot-kick.
