manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Scott McTominay sent an emphatic message on Saturday after coming off the bench to score two added-time goals in Manchester United's 2-1 win at home to Brentford.

United welcomed Thomas Frank's side to Old Trafford off the back of their worst start to a season in 39 years, having lost six of their opening 10 matches across all competitions.

Pressure was already building on Erik ten Hag who needed to arrest the slump with three points. United got off to a poor start and went 1-0 down inside 26 minutes, Mathias Jensen capitalising on a string of errors from the home side.

Casemiro's slack pass gave the ball away in midfield, with Victor Lindelof's poor clearance falling to the midfielder whose effort sneaked in under Andre Onana.
