Erik ten Hag's Team Secures Crucial Premier League Win at Southampton.

Matthijs de Ligt netted his first goal for Manchester United as Erik ten Hag’s team secured a vital Premier League win at Southampton.

Manchester United, needing a bounce-back performance after a heavy defeat to Liverpool, faced a tough start against Southampton. However, a key penalty save by Andre Onana from Cameron Archer turned the game around.

Matthijs de Ligt scored his first goal for United, heading in from a brilliant cross by Bruno Fernandes. 

Just six minutes later, Marcus Rashford added a second, netting his first goal of the season with a low strike.

The goals seemed to deflate Southampton, and United managed the game comfortably in the second half. 

Southampton’s day ended on a sour note when Jack Stephens received a red card late in the match for a reckless challenge on Alejandro Garnacho.
