Manchester United 5-2 Ipswich Town - Match Report
Sun Aug 30th 18:42
Manchester United skipper Bruno Fernandes scored a hat-trick as the Red Devils came from a goal behind to beat the Blues 5-2 at Old Trafford. Leif Davis gave Town a deserved lead on 29 but a Marcelino Nunez slip led to Fernandes netting an equaliser five minutes before the break. A controversial Jacob Greaves own goal gave the home side the lead on 56, before the United skipper converted a penalty five minutes later and then completed his hat-trick on 68. Bryan Mbeumo made it 5-1 on 82, prior to Chuba Akpom pulling one back in injury time.
