Maguire gives Ten Hag shocking warning as United fans react

Club captain Harry Maguire got a surprise start especially due to his tricky situation with Ten Hag since the start of the season. His partner was Lisandro Martinez, who surely needed the match fitness following his low game time in recent weeks.

Garnacho was the most dazzling player for United at the start of the game before Antony put United ahead with his beautiful curler. Marcus Rashford then comes off the bench to hijack the headline with a brace in the dying minutes of the game.

Which incident occurred during the game?

Almost midway into the first half Manchester United was forced to make an early substitution following what fans suspect to be a new injury to Diogo Dalot. Fans were furious that Ten Hag risked a key player ahead of the Manchester derby. But Ten Hag has rubbished the claim of a new injury Dalot saying that "the substitution was just precautionary " and nothing more.
