Just six minutes later, Marcus Rashford extended Manchester United's advantage. Positioned near the edge of the penalty area, Rashford skillfully maneuvered past a defender and unleashed a low, accurate shot that beat Southampton's goalkeeper, Aaron Ramsdale, at the near post.
In the final moments of the match, Alejandro Garnacho sealed the victory for United. Casemiro's incisive pass found Diogo Dalot, who then provided a perfect cut-back to Garnacho. Positioned just six yards from goal, Garnacho confidently fired the ball into the back of the net.
