Marcus Rashford hit a stoppage-time winner as Manchester United came from behind again to continue their revival, this time securing a 2-1 victory at in-form Bournemouth.

Eddie Howe's Bournemouth had won five of their past six fixtures and were on course to win again when Callum Wilson gave them a deserved lead, but as they similarly did against Newcastle and Chelsea, United regrouped, securing a valuable victory through finishes from Anthony Martial and Rashford.

The rebuild required since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement remains a steady, ongoing process, but if their rediscovery of the resilience that gave them so many points late on in games under Ferguson becomes a regular feature it will ensure they maintain their present momentum.

Here's how it all unfolded:

Eddie Howe must be contemplating his options now, yes. Fraser comes off and Ibe comes on.

Poor from Luke Shaw, Matic tries to give him the ball and he leaves it to go out of play, a rare communication error from the Manchester United men in this second half.

He's had a good day for Man Utd one of only a couple of players that can say that but Sanchez now makes way for Jesse Lingard.

81 mins: Bournemouth 1 - 1 Man Utd

De Gea comes to the rescue again for Man Utd. Brooks is played in behind on the left side of the box and he fires a powerful shot at De Gea who punches it clear.

Martial brings the ball forward for United and he tries to find Lingard on the edge of the box. Lingard taps it to Pogba who takes a shot that is blocked.

87 mins: Bournemouth 1 - 1 Man Utd

Bournemouth get the ball quickly down to Man Utd's area and look to press an attack but they try to be too fancy and give Man Utd the ball back.

Oh Jesse! Herrera feeds the ball through the defence to Lingard and he has a chance to finish the game but Begovic makes another save, this time stretching out a foot to stop the ball.

91 mins: Bournemouth 1 - 2 Man Utd - Rashford

Marcus Rashford wins the game for Manchester United! Pogba flicks the ball into the box from the left, his pass is perfect and Rashford takes two attempts to put the ball into the back of the net but in it goes!

Bournemouth 1 - 2 Man Utd

The Bournemouth fans will be heartbroken, they totally dominated the first half but Manchester United came back incredibly in the last 45 minutes and have come away with the three points.
