Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund shared a touching nod to legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson on his Instagram profile after the dramatic victory over Brentford.

Scott McTominay was the United hero on Saturday afternoon with two stoppage-time goals to settle the scores against Brentford in their Premier League showdown.

It was the first time United had scored twice beyond the 90-minute mark to win a game since the top-flight was rebranded. That's despite United making a habit of striking in 'Fergie Time' during their glory years.

McTominay and his United teammates sparked pandemonium at Old Trafford.
