Manchester United returned to winning ways after beating Southampton 3-0 in Saturday afternoon’s early Premier League match at St. Marys’.
The Red Devils eased the pressure on Erik Ten Hag after cruising past Russell Martin’s struggling Saints.
First-half goals from Matthijs De Ligt and Marcus Rashford set the tone before substitute Alejandro Garnacho netted a late third 10 minutes after Jack Stephens was shown a straight red card for a poorly timed challenge.
The afternoon could have turned out very different for the Red Devils though. Southampton started the game the better of the two sides with goalkeeper Andre Onana called into action after Diogo Dalot conceded a penalty after just 33 minutes.
