Manchester United 1-0 Luton Town: Victor Lindelof fires home his first club goal in almost three years to secure a much-needed win for Erik ten Hag's side as they rise up to sixth

Manchester United secured a hugely important three points against Luton Town after a 1-0 victory at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.

Victor Lindelof scored the only goal of the game midway through the second half as the Swedish defender fired home after the ball broke to him in the box.

It was Lindelof's first United goal since December 2020 and could be hugely important for the under-pressure Erik ten Hag.
