Southampton have stunned Manchester United in the 23rd minute of this afternoon’s Premier League tie, with the Saints exploiting some poor defending at a corner.
James Ward-Prowse showcased his inch-perfect crossing ability to deliver a pinpoint ball into the box, Jan Bednarek outmuscled and darted away from Marcus Rashford, before also beating Alex Telles in the air to score a towering header at the near post.
Bednarek made the most of the mismatch.

A disastrous start for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, with all respect to Bednarek and Southampton the Red Devils could’ve easily avoided this.
