Bruno Fernandes scored a penalty late in injury time to secure Manchester United ’s first win of the season.
It is a key win for Ruben Amorim, who was under significant pressure after losing to Grimsby Town in a midweek Carabao Cup tie.
United’s performance was far from convincing, but it is a step in the right direction nonetheless. Burnley equalised twice in the match, but were denied a deserved point after Amad Diallo went down in the box to win an injury-time penalty.
