Manchester United Secure 3-1 Victory Over Burnley at Old Trafford
Greenwood's Brace and Cavani's Late Strike Earn Three Points
Wood's Early Goal Negated by United's Dominance
Manchester United earned a vital 3-1 victory over Burnley at Old Trafford, thanks to a brace from Mason Greenwood and a late strike from Edinson Cavani. Despite Chris Wood's early goal for the visitors, United responded with a dominant performance that secured all three points.
Burnley took a surprise lead just a minute into the game, with Wood pouncing on a loose ball in the penalty area. However, United quickly asserted their authority and equalized in the 27th minute through Greenwood. The young striker finished off a flowing move with a clinical strike from the edge of the box.
Greenwood doubled United's advantage just before halftime, tapping in a cross from Aaron Wan-Bissaka. The second half saw Burnley push for an equalizer, but United defended resolutely and extended their lead in the 84th minute. Cavani, who had come on as a substitute, broke through the Burnley defense and slotted the ball into the net.
The victory moves United into the top half of the Premier League table and provides a much-needed boost to their season. Greenwood's goalscoring form continues to impress, while Cavani's late intervention highlights the depth of talent at Solskjaer's disposal.
