Highlights and reaction: United 2 Villa 1

Saturday 02 January 2021 00:01

Manchester United started 2021 in the best possible way as we picked up three points against Aston Villa.

It was a frenetic, action-packed encounter that could and perhaps, should, have produced more goals.

But it was the Reds who managed to find the back of the net more often, via Anthony Martial and Bruno Fernandes, either side of Bertrand Traore's strike.

The victory sees Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side move level on points with first-placed Liverpool and will be remembered as one of our most entertaining contests of the campaign.
