It is only the third time a team has lost 9-0 in the Premier League, with United also beating Ipswich Town by that margin in 1995.

Defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka opened scoring for the hosts which was his first goal at Old Trafford, Marcus Rashford and Edinson Cavani also recorded their names on the scoresheet.
