United lose to Nottingham for Amorim's second defeat in a row

After the arrival of Ruben Amorim, Manchester United earned four points in four matches and failed to win in the match against Nottingham Forest.

The visitors shocked the Mancunians in the second minute when Milenkovic headed the ball into the net after a corner kick.

In the middle of the first half MU got back on track. First, Forest's goalkeeper stopped Garnacho's excellent shot, but then Höjlund managed to send the ball into the net and equalised. And before the break the Mancunians should have taken the lead, but the visitors were saved by the crossbar after a free kick performed by Fernandes.

United conceded again at the beginning of the second half when Gibbs-White sent the ball into the net with a low shot. Wood soon responded to a cross from Gibbs-White to score Nottingham's third goal.

Fernandes made it 2-3 after Diallo's pass, but all of United's attempts to avoid defeat failed. The last one was missed by Lisandro Martinez when he shot over the goal in the penalty time.

2:3 - Manchester United suffer their second consecutive defeat.
