Commentary

Though the result looked in jeopardy after a half-hour played at Old Trafford, Manchester United came roaring back for an eventually comfortable 5-2 victory over Ipswich Town - courtesy of a 28-minute hat-trick from Fernandes. An evenly contested opening quarter-hour in which the hosts looked the slightly better of the two sides gave way to a 10-minute spell in which O’Neil’s side took the lead through Davis, and could have scored twice more. Their missed opportunities would come back to bite them though, as Fernandes restored parity ahead of the interval, before adding two more midway through the second period - with his first after the restart coming from the penalty spot. A rather unfortunate Greaves own goal and a deft Mbeumo finish would add finishing touches to an impressive turnaround, before a late bit of poor play from Martinez allowed Enciso and Akpom to combine for an Ipswich second. Both sides scores accurately reflect their xG totals (4.55 to 2.01), but the win leaves Manchester United level with their opponents today ahead of a match with Everton on September 6, while Ipswich Town’s task doesn’t get any easier after their loss, as they meet Liverpool next - on Friday. That concludes our commentary of the Premier League fixture between Manchester United and Ipswich Town - we hope you’ve enjoyed it!

90'+9'

FULL-TIME: MANCHESTER UNITED 5-2 IPSWICH TOWN

90'+7'

Dorgu gets the ball out of his feet quickly to test Scherpen with a powerful shot at his near post, but the goalkeeper - who has certainly been busy today - stands in front of another effort to make his seventh save.

90'+5'

Often more present popping up at the end of crosses, Sesko takes on Greaves near the byline before feathering a cross into the six-yard box to keep the ball in play, but the substitute striker places his delivery right into the hands of Scherpen; one of few players taller than the Slovenia international.

90'+3'Manchester UnitedYellow Card

Mbeumo raises his arm during an attempt to prevent Enciso from dribbling past him, catching his opponent in the chin. Certainly not intentional, the contact does draw the attention of Craig Pawson, who shows the Manchester United player a yellow card.

90'+1'

Enciso’s second assist of the season comes late in the game, eight days after his pass presented Emersonn the opportunity to open the scoring against Sunderland.
