Manchester United beat nine-man 9 goals

by Thando Gama
Manchester United have won home and away against Southampton in a league season for the first time since their last title-winning campaign in 2012-13. Last season's 9-0 loss to Leicester came at home - this was the biggest away defeat in Southampton's history. Saints have lost four consecutive Premier League games for the first time since April 2018. Manchester United became only the second side to have seven different scorers in a Premier League match, after Chelsea against Aston Villa in December 2012. United scored four goals in the first half of a Premier League game for the second time this season, also doing so against Leeds. It is the first time since 1997-98 they have scored four or more in the opening period of two matches in a campaign. Only former United striker Eric Cantona and ex-West Ham forward Dimitri Payet (both 33 games) have assisted 15 Premier League goals in fewer appearances than Fernandes, with Tuesday's his 36th appearance in the competition.

Manchester United manager Solskjaer speaking to BBC Sport: “When they had a man sent off it was up to us to get the first goal.

“You have to take your chances in tight or open games – you never know what might be the deciding factor. We know, better than anyone, what goal difference can do to you because we have lost the league on goal difference.

“Confidence is one thing but it was about the mojo and spark – the X-factor.”

“We tried in the second half to keep a clean sheet as much as we could, but at nine men it was too easy for them to score.

“What can I say? It is horrible. But we stood up after the first 9-0 [against Leicester] and we have to do that again.”
