Scott McTominay's late brace rescues Manchester United in sensational comeback victory against Brentford
Posted : 07 October 2023
Scott McTominay's heroics in stoppage time secured a stunning comeback victory for Manchester United against Brentford at Old Trafford. Initially, United trailed due to Mathias Jensen's first-half goal, and they were on the verge of a rare third consecutive home league loss.
Manager Erik ten Hag introduced McTominay with only three minutes remaining, and the Scottish midfielder made an immediate impact. First, he displayed excellent control and netted a goal when Kristoffer Ajer mishandled a clearance inside his own box. Then, following a save from Anthony Martial's low shot by Thomas Strakosha, McTominay reacted swiftly to a Harry Maguire flick-on and delivered the decisive finish.
The dramatic win was celebrated by the home fans well after the final whistle, as Manchester United embarked on a lap of honor, recognizing the significance of the victory, which saved them from an unwanted record of consecutive home defeats.
