In an attempt to win a Premier League game at home, Manchester United hosted Aston Villa at Old Trafford earlier today. After a sluggish start to the match, John McGinn’s indirect freekick in the 21st minute gave the Red Devils the lead. Just five minutes later, Leander Dendoncker increased Aston Villa’s lead, sending Erik ten Hag’s team into halftime trailing 2-0.

In the 59th minute, Alejandro Garnacho gave Man United a goal back. Twelve minutes later, he equalised for the team. The comeback was ultimately completed by Rasmus Hojlund, who scored in the 82nd minute with a superb finish. The Manchester team managed to hold onto their slim lead and triumph brilliantly 3-2 in front of their home supporters.
