The press room is in the same part of the ground and a strong smell of flare smoke wafted up there a few moments ago. Matic joins in with the rolling back the years club and lofts a fine ball beyond the Brentford defence. 25th minute: Ronaldo plays the ball in field and continues his run. 10 mins to kickoff: Jaap Stam has just been on the pitch to enjoy a warm reception. Fernandes has the whites of Raya's eyes in his sights but pulls just wide of the far post. United then make a collective nonsense of defending the corner, with De Gea forced into a trademark save with his boot from Toney. 74th minute: Perhaps a reason for that was the sight of substitutes ready to come on. 57th minute: Mbeumo looks for Eriksen with a testing ball to the back post. 82nd minute: Fernandes fancies his second of the evening and has a long-ranger deflected wide. 80th minute: As you'd expect, the sting has gone out of this a little. However, in Elanga he has elevated a hard-working and intelligent forward playing the game as he likes to see it. 89th minute: As if to prove a point, Toney darts into the United area and falls over with no one near him.

Fred and Edinson Cavani could both return from calf injuries. Four players are out for Brentford — Ethan Pinnock, Sergi Canos, Frank Onyeka, and Saman Ghoddos.

Those factors culminated in Judge deciding to resign from his role as United’s director of football negotiations. Judge had previously reported direct to Woodward, but he did not have the same line into new chief executive Richard Arnold. People with a good understanding of Manchester United believe Matt Judge’s position at the club became uncertain once Ed Woodward left. I’m pretty sure that their expectations were to be higher. •3h ago •3h ago •3h ago •3h ago This will again not be an easy game for us.” •3h ago Hopefully it is going to be a big change in terms of results and fans will be happy.” Struggling for form, United look to have seen their chances of Champions League football slip away.

The relief turned to disbelief a couple of minutes later when the peerless Ronaldo slipped and fell over when clean through on goal thanks to a delightful Diogo Dalot through ball. He is not alone, of course, and the sub-plot of the game revolved around the imminent shake-up expected from Ten Hag and how the supporters would react to their last home game of a wretched season. It was his ninth goal in his last six league games for the club, a spell in which he has accounted for all but three of his team’s output.

Seconds later, he was on the other end of the pitch, attempting to send in a dangerous cross that in the end was as threatening as a fly. The team is rubbing off on them. As Ronaldo ran to the corner for his signature celebration in the second half after converting a penalty kick to make it 2-0, the smiles and cheers from the fans felt almost forced. Still, United had their moments in the victory, which was led by Cristiano Ronaldo. But much too often it was the poor execution and the failure to master simple basics that have plagued what was set to be a promising season. The attack, in large part, is Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes and little else. In a two-minute span, Manchester United fullback Diogo Dalot perfectly encapsulated what the 2021-22 campaign has been like for the Red Devils -- full of miscues.

Manchester United return to centre stage tonight as they welcome in-form Brentford to Old Trafford for their final home game of the season.The Red Dev.

He crosses into a packed box and the ball appears to hit Telles' arm! Mata also gets a round of applause as he goes off. We have done well so far and we came here with belief, but United fought hard, ran hard and they have quality.” Now we have more games to go so focus on those. The key is he performs consistently at a high level. “I think we started well for the first five minutes but then Manchester United were on top. “Eriksen is again a very important player for us. “It's obvious quite a few players will leave and there is a need for top-quality players. In general we have lacked consistency.” Until the West Ham game we were still in the race in three competitions. It was not too easy for Brentford to take the ball away from us. It was the type of performance we wanted to show to our supporters.

United 3 Brentford 0 (Manchester United)

Manchester United put on an emphatic farewell display to the 2021/22 Old Trafford home season with a 3-0 win against Brentford. The last first-team match at ...

He was probably still getting hugs and handshakes from the Reds' bench when Varane volleyed in from a corner to score his first goal for United and make it 3-0. Ronaldo was particularly loving the quick pitch and he opened a box of tricks and flicks to entertain the crowd. 1 stuck out a leg to block a shot from Toney. The Stretford End was ready to acclaim goal number two when Matic dinked over a cheeky pass for Fernandes whose drilled right foot shot zipped a whisker wide of the far post. Dalot’s early deliveries were impeccable and the right-back sent a well-timed beauty to meet Anthony Elanga’s run behind the Brentford defence. It was almost a dreadful start for United with Brentford coming close just 10 seconds into the match.

Match Preview: Manchester United vs Brentford (Brentford FC)

We've got a Monday night in Manchester to look forward to tonight as we head to Old Trafford. Anything less than a win for the hosts would end their faint ...

In recent fixtures at Old Trafford, away fans have experienced congestion and delays around the turnstiles. At VfB Stuttgart he won the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 2000 and followed that up with the 2. He won the Regionalliga Süd in his debut season, the first of seven titles he would win with four different clubs. He has failed to either score or assist a goal in just two of those 18 matches, with one of those being in the reverse fixture against Brentford. No side is on a longer run without an away clean sheet in the competition than the Bees. At the age of 37, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to be United's talisman with 23 goals this term, 14 more than anyone else in the Red Devils' squad.

The Portuguese smashed the penalty in for his 18th league goal of the season and United were cruising. The defender’s response was to lump Ronaldo over and Christopher Kavanagh pointed to the spot. The winger zipped forward and pulled the ball back across Raya for the hurtling Fernandes to crash home a volley for his 10th league strike of the season. Mata was one of the leaders of this gang, his smart play including a one-two with Ronaldo that ended with the Spaniard smacking an effort only marginally wide. This was not observed in the numbers hoped for by the organisers: a sign of how the on-field product pleased home fans. “It was also the players on the pitch, three creative central midfielders with Juan Mata, Bruno [Fernandes] and Nemanja Matic. We were in control in most parts, still had a few gaps defensively but I was pleased with the performance we showed tonight.”

Jesse Lingard was denied an Old Trafford farewell in Man United's win against Brentford and his brother lambasted the club.

But then I had to decide between substituting and bringing on him or Edinson Cavani and that's why I decided to play Edinson." "Tonight was one of those nights where I would have loved five substitutes for other players. Cavani emerged for his first appearance since the defeat to Atletico Madrid on March 15.
