SEASON 2025/26
SCOTTISH PREMIER LEAGUE
Venue: OLD TRAFFORD
MANCHESTER UNITED 2 BRENTFORD 1
Scorers: Casemiro, Sesko; Jenson
Monday night football in Manchester for a very interesting fixture against two teams going all out for European qualification. United looking to get back into the Champions League and Brentford looking to qualify for a UEFA competition for the first time in their history.
From the very beginning both sides missed great chances. United should have gone ahead inside 3 minutes before taking deserved lead. Brentford should have been levelled before half time but missed a series of good chances and then United made them pay when they scored their second goal a minute before half time.
In the second 45 minutes United sat back and Brentford applied the pressure however they only managed to half the deficit

Personal note:
- The was a new fixture for me - number 439
- This was the 85th time seeing a United game
- This was my 3rd time seeing Brentford but the first in the top tier of league football
