Newcomer Matthijs de Ligt scored his first goal on Saturday while Marcus Rashford scored for the first time since March in Manchester United’s 3-0 Premier League win over Southampton.

Alejandro Garnacho added a late goal for Erik ten Hag’s side, who started the day 14th in the table after two successive defeats. They now have six points from four games, while newly promoted Southampton are still without a point.

Southampton dominated early on but squandered a chance to take the lead in the 34th minute when United goalkeeper André Onana saved a poor penalty from Cameron Archer, instantly turning the tide at St. Mary’s Stadium.

A minute later, De Ligt headed in a beautiful ball from Bruno Fernandes. Rashford, who had gone 13 games without a goal, ended his drought in the 45th minute with a diagonal shot from outside the box into the far corner.

In the 79th minute the home side were reduced to 10 men when defender Jack Stephens was sent off for a high tackle on Garnacho.
