Bruno Fernandes converted a 97th-minute penalty to secure a 3-2 win for Manchester United against Burnley. United dominated the first half and took the lead through an own goal by Josh Cullen. Lyle Foster levelled in the 55th minute, and the visitors then went ahead when Bryan Mbeumo put the hosts back in front two minutes later. Jaidon Anthony scored after a goalmouth scramble following a long throw to make it 2-2. A late tug on Amad Diallo prompted a VAR reversal and the decisive penalty, which Fernandes scored.
A last-gasp Bruno Fernandes penalty rescued three points for Manchester United against Burnley as Ruben Amorim's side secured their first Premier League win of the season in dramatic fashion. The game looked to be heading to a 2-2 draw after Burnley twice cancelled out goals from the hosts at Old Trafford before a tug on Amad Diallo in stoppage time led to a VAR reversal for a penalty.
In the 97th minute, United's captain Fernandes made no mistake from the spot. It was a better performance in general from United but they still showed the flakiness that saw them knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Grimsby in midweek. United dominated the first half and an own goal from Josh Cullen put them in front, before Lyle Foster equalised in the 55th minute.
