Brentford vs Manchester United live: Scores and updates from Premier League clash

More pressure from United as Dorgu wins a free-kick near the area, but it’s cleared before Cunha wins a corner off the rebound.

Some nerves around the Gtech now, though Brentford clear the corner and almost launch a counter-attack before Ugarte sniffs out the danger.

GOAL! It’s scrappy, but United won’t care! Brentford are protesting that it might have gone out of play, or there might have been a foul on Kelleher, but it looks okay.

The ball is fired long towards Dorgu on the left wing, and he just about manages to keep it in as he hits a looping high cross.

It troubles Kelleher and he can’t clear it under pressure from Mbeumo, and it runs straight to Sesko a few yards out. His initial header is saved before the follow-up shot is cleared off the line, but it’s third time lucky as it rebounds kindly and he rifles it in from point-blank range!

Brentford win a free-kick in a dangerous area near the box, and this could be another troublesome delivery.

Damsgaard swings it in and the header reaches Bayindir, but the foul is given on de Ligt anyway. Nevertheless, Brentford are absolutely dominating the visitors on set-pieces.

United are a little shellshocked here and they look tp reply quickly, but Sesko’s shot from distance flies harmlessly wide.

GOAL! It’s another for Thiago!

United are undone by another long ball, as Thiago chests it down to Schade. He races into the box and forces Byindir to punch away the cross, but it goes straight to Thiago, who squeezes a low finish under the United ‘keeper!

Arguably a poor initial punch from Bayindir, but Brentford won’t care!

Two good saves in as many minutes from Bayindir!

The first comes a corner as van den Berg heads too close to the ‘keeper and he claws it away.

Moments later, he pulls off an even better stop as the early cross is headed towards the top corner by Collins, and Bayindir does brilliantly to tip it over.

The Bees are on top here!

Nice combinations on the left from United but Sesko’s attempted pass wide to Mbeumo is cut out.

Brentford win another throw-in and it’ll be chucked into the box. It’s another dangerous effort, with Kayode nearly throwing it straight into the net as Bayindir is forced to punch it behind.

Fernandes heads the corner away for now.

United look to respond immediately and Cunha drives towards goal before firing wide from just outside the box.

The Brazilian has picked up some good positions in the pockets already today.

GOAL! What has happened here?

It’s a superb finish whatever happened.

It all starts from a United attack, with the final ball again mis-placed.

Brentford win it on the edge of the box and they lump it long to Thiago, who is immediately clean through as Maguire has misjudged the offside line.

He races through and into the box, and hits a superb half-volley that crashes straight past Bayindir! No chance for the ‘keeper!

There is a VAR check for offside but it’s cleared, and Brentford lead!

Half a chance for United as they win the ball near halfway, and it’s their first meaningful attack.

Cunha threads it through to Sesko, who sees his shot blocked before his lay-off to the Brazilian is mis-placed.
