At Old Trafford, Luton suffered their 17th straight defeat, although Manchester United struggled to hold onto the three points. They needed to rely on midfielder Victor Lindelof’s moment to win their seventh Premier League game of the season since the attacking players kept wasting chances.

At Old Trafford, Victor Lindelof scored the game’s lone goal.

Against Luton, Rasmus Hojlund missed a five-yard attempt.

Rasmus Hojlund, a striker valued at 83 million USD, is still struggling in the Premier League and was hurt enough to miss the entire game. Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford, the two wingers, both squandered chances to square off against one another. But the home team’s defense, led by Harry Maguire and Andre Onana, performed admirably, making vital interceptions and saves.

Luton deliberately withdrew deep to defend, letting Man Utd retain possession of the ball. The home team struggled against a formidable defense as usual, and their only real chance to threaten the score came in the 41st minute of play when Alejandro Garnacho received a pass from Rasmus Hojlund that went from the middle to the left of the penalty area. But the 19-year-old midfielder handled the ball slowly, allowing the opposing team’s defender to grab hold of him.

Alex Ferguson, the former coach, made his long-awaited comeback to the stands after his wife died away. He had numerous conversations and laughs while sitting near to coach Sam Allardyce. Sometimes Allardyce yawned on the field when opportunities were few.

Luton’s defense was only breached by Man Utd through contrived circumstances and a small amount of luck. The opposition squad cleared Bruno Fernandes’ corner, which made its way to Mason Mount. Marcus Rashford crossed the field and struck the foot of the Luton player after the English midfielder passed into the right penalty area. Victor Lindelof opened the score when the ball dropped at the ideal distance for him to sprint in and shoot toward the middle of the goal.

Luton is now in the 17th spot in the Premier League, but their play is not very noteworthy. Ten Hag’s complaints over the length of the eight minutes of extra time in the second half were the most noteworthy instances during that time.

After receiving his third booking of the season for his protestations against Luton, Erik ten Hag was given a one-game touchline ban.

Ten Hag once reprimanded the referee for awarding Luton a throw-in, which led to Luton receiving a yellow card. This is the only yellow card that Man Utd has received in this game, and the 53-year-old coach will not be allowed to referee the following game against Everton from the sidelines.
