Erik ten Hag's Scott McTominay joke as Bruno Fernandes makes controversial Man United claim

07.10.2023 - 22:07 manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Manchester United have Scott McTominay to thank for sparing their blushes after his stoppage-time brace saw the hosts to a 2-1 win over Brentford.

An Andre Onana mishap had seen Mathias Jensen put the Bees ahead at half-time before McTominay’s 87th-minute introduction changed the game.

The victory takes United to 12 points to ease some of the pressure on Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman had seen his side suffer horrendous defeats to Crystal Palace and Galatasaray in the preceding seven days and faced a third straight loss before he turned to McTominay.

United did not play brilliantly - although Bruno Fernandes begged to differ - but the Reds ended up with the three points.
