However, Fred expertly swept the ball into the far corner of the net after smart work from Mason Greenwood to make it a winning start for new interim manager Ralf Rangnick, while the match produced Man United’s first home league clean sheet of the campaign.
The victory has moved the 20-time English champions into sixth spot in the Premier League table, just three points behind fourth-placed West Ham United on the same number of games (15).
