Manchester United secured a memorable comeback victory over Brentford at home thanks to two goals from substitute Scott McTominay in the final seconds. On a beautiful afternoon at Old Trafford, Erik ten Hag’s men were largely stifled by the Bees, but they persisted and were rewarded. Despite some outstanding defensive performances, Thomas Frank’s team failed to earn all three points and had to return to west London empty-handed.
The top three players from the match are listed below.
Scott McTominay.
Truth be told, he didn’t do much while in possession, but he brought enthusiasm, and his two goals were crucial.
Rasmus Hojlund.
He appeared to be one of the few shining lights in an otherwise dreadful watch, which made him feel like it was déjà vu. Fans may be worried that his performance levels will soon drop due to the team’s general malaise at this point.
Evans Jonny.
Evans played well and made good use of all his knowledge to keep things under control. His composure could be an example for his teammates.
