"United's third win of the season was secured thanks to goals from Mount and Benjamin Sesko, to give Amorim some respite with his future under scrutiny. It means United have now won three in a row at Old Trafford and also brought a first clean sheet of the campaign. United will travel to Liverpool after the international break, seeking consecutive wins under their Portuguese head coach for the first time."
"Amorim was rewarded by starting Mount and gave a debut to Senne Lammens. The goalkeeper joined from Royal Antwerp on deadline day for 21m (18.3m) but had been left on the bench until Sunderland's visit. He looks confident in the first game, Amorim said. But the important thing is that the teammates helped Senne to have a good game because everyone was focused, not a lot of mistakes."
Manchester United beat Sunderland 2-0 with goals from Mason Mount and Benjamin Sesko, easing pressure on manager Ruben Amorim. The win was United's third of the season, their third consecutive home victory at Old Trafford and the club's first clean sheet of the campaign. Players publicly pledged full support for Amorim and plan to work through the international break to build momentum, aiming for consecutive wins and a top-four push. Amorim started Mount and handed a debut to goalkeeper Senne Lammens, who appeared confident with teammates helping limit mistakes.
