Man Utd vs Sunderland LIVE: Premier League latest score and goal updates | Football

Quite a breathless first half there – United have the lead.

No spot kick for the visitors, this one has been overturned. No debut penalty for Senne Lammens.

48 mins | Sesko has his boot high in the air and the referee points to the spot! There didn’t seem to be much contact but his boot was high…

47 mins | It is LASHING down at Old Trafford – and Sunderland might have a penalty here!

45 mins | United pounce on the counter again but Mount is penalised for a foul on Traore in the box. Replays suggest the United man might have been trodden on himself but it goes Sunderland’s way.

44 mins | Lammens forced into action! Xhaka, who can certainly hit them, lines one up and lashes it on goal from range. It’s a clean hit, but the Belgian deals with it well.

40 mins | That change from Sunderland has seen them switch it up to three at the back, mirroring United’s system.

39 mins | United almost pounce on the counter with Mount flicking a delightful ball into Mbeumo. He pings it through for Sesko to race onto but it is just too overcooked and Roefs comes out to collect.

37 mins | Sunderland are making an early change here with Adingra coming off for Ballard as Le Bris makes an early tactical tweak.

33 mins | United try to repeat the trick immediately and cause panic in the Sunderland box with the ball allowed to bounce. The visitors just about get away with it.

32 mins | Well, that was easy! Dalot launches a long throw in into the box and four Sunderland players leap to try and deal with it. None of them manage it and Sesko is well placed to tap home from close range.

A throw-in causes havoc and Sesko has his second United goal!

26 mins | Another fine save from Roefs! Fernandes this time shoots for goal with the Sunderland goalkeeper tipping it onto the woodwork. Amad can’t quite get the rebound on target.

22 mins | United smell a second here. Amad races forward from the right, forcing a save out of Roefs. Moments later it is Mbeumo’s turn, working space for himself before forcing the Sunderland goalkeeper into another save.

16 mins | Mbeumo is making a right nuisance of himself, harrying and bustling the Sunderland backline as he chases a ball over the top. Xhaka gets an accidental knee to the head amid it all and needs a bit of treatment.

13 mins | There’s a real intensity to United at the moment – Sunderland players are being swarmed whenever they get on the ball in decent areas – that will please Amorim as much as the goal.

A huge sigh of relief around Old Trafford – that is a lovely goal. Amad and Mbeumo are involved, combining neatly down the right with Mount picked out on the edge of the box.

His first touch is a beauty, setting himself up to side foot past the Sunderland goalkeeper.

Mason Mount gives the hosts the lead!

6 mins | Sunderland have started very neatly here, winning the early midfield duels. Lots of possession in their attacking third so far.

4 mins | What a chance for Sunderland! Xhaka does brilliantly down the left and feeds it across goal to Traore who can’t get a clean connection on the ball.
