Manchester United led against Burnley on two occasions during the match, but the away team managed to equalize twice.

After an own goal by Burnley in the first half, the team equalized early in the second. Just minutes later, United regained the lead when summer recruit Bryan Mbuemo scored his first Premier League goal for the club.

Jaidon Anthony gave Burnley the second equalizer, but in stoppage time, the home team was awarded a penalty after Amad Diallo was pulled by the jersey.

A pressured Manchester United has, with the 3-2 win, thus taken its first victory in the Premier League this season.

Hjalmar Ekdal started the match for Burnley and was substituted after 82 minutes.

In parallel, Bournemouth sensationally won away against Tottenham in London. Bournemouth won 1-0, after Evanilson gave the away team the lead after five minutes. The striker came to a finish that went via Cristian Romero into the net behind Guglielmo Vicario in goal. After the goal, it was closer to a 2-0 goal than an equalizer.

Lucas Bergvall came in for Tottenham in the 54th minute.
