Overview

• Mason Mount struck after eight minutes and Benjamin Sesko added a close‑range second to move United up to eighth with a third consecutive home win.
• Debutant goalkeeper Senne Lammens, a deadline‑day £18m signing from Royal Antwerp, kept a clean sheet as Amorim declined to declare a new permanent No 1.
• A penalty initially awarded against Sesko for a high boot was overturned on VAR review by referee Stuart Attwell, and Lammens later saved from Chemsdine Talbi to seal the shutout.
• Sesko has now scored in back‑to‑back matches after six scoreless outings, netting his first goal at Old Trafford.
• Mount said the players are “100% behind” the manager, with senior club figures watching on and tougher tests next, starting at Liverpool.
