Southampton, Sep 14 || Manchester United have roared back to action, after losing against Liverpool in their final game before the international break, with a 3-0 victory over Southampton thanks to goals by new signing Matthijs De Ligt, Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho at St Mary’s Stadium on Saturday.
It was Southampton who had the first sight at goal, as youngster Tyler Dibling ran clear down the right and curled a left-footed effort that looked bound to nestle in the net, only for Onana to claw the ball clear.
Erik ten Hag’s men were coming under serious pressure and the tricky Dibling forced Diogo Dalot into a rash challenge, right on the edge of the penalty area.
Referee Stuart Attwell did not hesitate in pointing to the spot. Archer’s penalty kick was stopped by Onana, along with the subsequent headed rebound.
Just minutes later Bruno Fernandes’ flighted cross was expertly met by De Ligt, who was able to open his account in English football with a goal via a well worked corner.
