MU: summit meeting between Rúben Amorim and Jim Ratcliffe

As part of the 6th day of the Premier League, Brentford is currently welcoming Manchester United and the locals started this meeting perfectly. Launched in depth, Igor Thiago, who left on the edge of the offside in the back of a faulty Maguire, brought the ball of the head and chained with a sublime half-volley from the left at the entrance to the surface.

The Brazilian even offered himself a double in stride before Benjamin Sesko reduced the gap. Opportunistic, the defector of the RB Leipzig scored its first goal at the same time under the colors of the Red Devils.
