Manchester United entertained Arsenal at Old Trafford earlier this evening as they hoped to secure a good result at home in the Premier League. The Red Devils made a slow start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the 20th minute when Leandro Trossard found the back of the net. Erik ten Hag’s men failed to come up with a response and went into the half-time break 1-0 down on the scoreline.
Man United struggled to mount a comeback in the second half and crashed to a lackluster 1-0 loss in front of their home supporters.
