southampton vs man united |Marcus Rashford scores as Erik ten Hag's side avoid third straight defeat

Victory on the south coast meant United avoided a run of three straight Premier League defeats for the first time since 2015.Russell Martin's Saints fearlessly took the game to United - after three straight losses of their own - and came close to the opener inside 10 minutes when academy product Tyler Dibling - on his full Premier League - embarked on a mazy solo run and forced Andre Onana into a sprawling save.They had the chance to capitalise on a positive start just after the half-hour when Dibling was chopped down in the box and referee Stuart Attwell pointed to the spot, but Cameron Archer's weakly-struck penalty was saved by Onana. That miss turned the game.Having survived what had been, at times, intense spells of pressure, United did take the lead after 35 minutes, though, when Matthijs de Ligt headed in Bruno Fernandes' corner after it had passed over Jack Stephens' head unchallenged.
