Overview
- The decisive spot kick followed a video review for a shirt pull on Amad Diallo, a ruling Burnley manager Scott Parker criticised as an off‑field overturn of the initial non-call.
- Ruben Amorim said he looked away for the penalty because he trusted Bruno Fernandes would not miss a second in a row.
- Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount were forced off with first‑half injuries, with Amorim expressing concern and confirming both will undergo assessment.
- Manchester United players publicly backed their coach, with Matthijs de Ligt saying the squad stands behind Amorim and accepts responsibility for recent setbacks.
- Bryan Mbeumo scored United’s second and earned praise for his influence as defensive frailties and an Altay Bayindir error allowed Burnley to level twice.
