Download Manchester United vs Burnley 2 - 0 (EFL Goals & Highlights)

Manchester United returned to competitive action with a comfortable 2-0 victory against Championship leaders Burnley on Wednesday night, easing into the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.

Erik ten Hag bluntly outlined the club’s expectations for the tie pre-game: “We have to win.” That obligation was evident from the presence of five returning World Cup players in United's starting XI - a selection decision which paid off in the short term at least.

Portugal's quarter-finalist Bruno Fernandes dropped in front of Burnley’s mesh of bodies, floating a pass just within the reach of Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s telescopic leg. The advanced full back hooked the ball across the box for Denmark's Christian Eriksen to tap in from close range in the 27th minute.
