Overview

  • Mason Mount marked his return to the starting XI with an eighth-minute finish to set United on their way at Old Trafford.
  • Benjamin Sesko scored for a second straight match and his first at Old Trafford, converting a move that began with a Diogo Dalot long throw.
  • A stoppage-time penalty against Sesko for a high boot was overturned after a VAR review, reversing the on-field decision.
  • New goalkeeper Senne Lammens, a deadline-day signing from Royal Antwerp for about £18.1–£18.2m, impressed with confident handling and key saves for United’s first clean sheet of the season.
  • Amorim praised Lammens but declined to confirm a new first-choice keeper, with Liverpool away up next after the international break.
