Pegged back before halftime with loanee striker, Liam Delap forcing a stunning point-blank save from Andre Onana – before an edge-of-the-box strike from Omari Hutchinson deflected into the roof of the net.

Not Harry. Licha (Lisandro Martinez) is ready,” Ruben Amorim explained.
“He didn’t stop [playing] too much time so I feel he is ready. It is a different situation with Harry, we need them both but they are in a different situation. They are both training, Harry soon will be on the pitch also.”
Another exciting name United fans are awaiting the anticipated debut of is French signing, Leny Yoro – who returned to first-team training earlier this month following a nasty knee injury suffered during a pre-season match with Arsenal.
Inking a high-profile deal from French side, Lille in the summer transfer window, Yoro is still building up his fitness base for a return to a starting XI, according to Ruben Amorim in his latest update.
“He is available to train but we are working on his fitness. This is important,” Ruben Amorim said. “He is a young guy, this is a massive club. It’s very important the first image, so we will try to put it together because he’s a great talent. “We believe a lot in him and we are trying to prepare the best way to start with Leny.”
