Southampton vs Man Utd LIVE: Premier League result and final score after Bruno Fernandes’s goal

Manchester United goalscorer Bruno Fernandes spoke to BT Sport after the game saying: “We knew it playing against Southampton, it is not easy. We have experienced that already. Sometimes you have to suffer. Every game is tough. Well done to us. Massive three points for us. Now we have to carry on.

“It’s important because one win or two wins don’t make the league. We have to carry on this sacrifice for the rest of the season. It is what this club demands. After Liverpool everyone could feel it. We set the standard so we have to carry on now and if we can, improve it.

“It was a great ball [for the goal], even great play from behind. Everything was perfect. Someone runs, someone gets the space behind. We did it well, so well done to everyone not just me.

“We did two or three seasons ago not losing from home but we want to win every game that’s what it’s about to play for Manchester United.”

Two wins in two for Manchester United moves them to within three points of league leaders Arsenal.

It’s been 188 days since Manchester United last won away from home in the league but they’ve seen off Southampton to claim all three points.

90+6 mins: There’s the whistle! Manchester United win back-to-back games for the first time since February. They’re now up to sixth in the table before this afternoon’s 3pm games kick off.

It was a well-fought, disciplined and at time scrappy win for the Red Devils but Erik ten Hag’s team get the job done at St Mary’s thanks to Bruno Fernandes’ brilliant volley.

90+4 mins: Off the line! The cross comes in from the left side and gets headed down to Sekou Mara who meets it with an overhead kick but sees his effort cleared off the line by Diogo Dalot!

Ralph Hasenhuttl has his head in his hands. Southampton are so close to an equaliser.

90+3 mins: Christian Eriksen is taken off by Erik ten Hag with Fred coming on to replace him for the Red Devils. Three minutes left to play at St Mary’s.

Ward-Prowse sends a long free kick into the box that De Gea comes out to punch away. He needs the help of Fred though to complete the clearance.

90 mins: McTominay is back on for the visitors and jogs his way into the middle of the pitch. There’s going to be six minutes of added time to play!

That’s plenty of time for an equaliser or a winning goal if you’re a Man Utd fan.

88 mins: Ouch! Scott McTominay jars his left leg in a challenge with Romeo Lavia and after United clear the danger around the edge of their own box the medical team come on to take a look at him.

It looked like shocking pain for McTominay that is hopefully not too bad.

Lyanco and Romain Perraud are brought on by Ralph Hasenhuttl.

85 mins: Scott McTominay collects a yellow card for sprawling all over Joe Aribo in the middle of the pitch. It’s McTominay’s third yellow of the season and he’s only made four appearances.

David De Gea waves Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez up the pitch, he’s taking no chances of playing out from the back with just five minutes to play as he takes a goal kick.

82 mins: Casemiro makes his Manchester United debut and comes on to replace Anthony Elanga. The £60m man will be tasked with seeing this game out for the visitors.

After United’s shaky start to the year this will be a big win if they can pull it off. They haven’t been at their best today but have squeezed themselves in front.
