Watford 4-1 Manchester United: Emmanuel Dennis stars in embarassing defeat for Solskjær

Manchester United were defeated in humiliating fashion by newly promoted Watford 4-1 at Vicarage Road. The visitors were down a man for the last twenty minutes of the game.

Harry Maguire was sent off for a second yellow, and this resulted in two more goals being conceded in extra time. During the initial stages of the game, Manchester United conceded a penalty. David De Gea prevented the opposition from scoring the first time, as well as during the retake. 

Watford would then open the scoring for good, as Joshua King netted shortly before the half-hour mark. Just before the break, Ismaila Sarr doubled the lead of the Hornets, with extra pressure already on the team. 

Marcus Rashford and Scott McTominay were subbed off for Anthony Martial and Donny Van de Beek respectively at half time. The Dutchman had his name sung during the first half of the game by the travelling fans.
