Epic Comeback: Man United 2-1 Brentford – All Goals & Highlights

In a thrilling match at Old Trafford, Scott McTominay’s two stoppage-time goals secured a sensational 2-1 victory for Manchester United against Brentford.

Meanwhile, despite being down to 10 men, Tottenham claimed the top spot in the Premier League with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Luton on Saturday.

Manchester United, who had faced turmoil with two recent defeats to Crystal Palace and Galatasaray, found themselves in a dire situation at Old Trafford.

Just 26 minutes into the game, their defense crumbled in a chaotic manner. Casemiro carelessly lost possession, Victor Lindelof’s clearance attempt went awry, and Mathias Jensen capitalized with a low shot that eluded Andre Onana’s feeble save.

Facing a Brentford side that hadn’t won since August 19, United, positioned ninth in the league, received boos from the crowd at halftime. They struggled for most of the match but managed to level the score in the 90th minute when McTominay, coming off the bench, netted a close-range strike during injury time.

The Scottish midfielder then played the hero in the 97th minute, heading powerfully from a Maguire assist to secure the victory and relieve some of the pressure on manager Erik ten Hag.

Over at Kenilworth Road, Yves Bissouma of Tottenham received a second yellow card for diving just before halftime. However, the team rallied after the break, and Mickey van de Ven’s first-ever goal for the club secured Tottenham’s sixth win in eight league games, maintaining their unbeaten record.

Ange Postecoglou’s squad now sits two points ahead of second-placed Manchester City, who are set to face title rivals Arsenal on Sunday.

Reflecting on the match, Postecoglou praised his players’ character and resilience, emphasizing their determination to reshape the destiny of the football club through their on-field efforts. This unbeaten start marks the best beginning by any Tottenham manager in history.
