Goals from Matthijs de Ligt and Marcus Rashford had put Erik ten Hag’s side into a comfortable position at St Mary’s Stadium, which we’d later improve on through Alejandro Garnacho’s injury-time effort.
The Dutchman took advantage of our lead to introduce Ugarte, who prior to the match he’d pointed out had only been involved in a couple of training sessions with his new team-mates.
The 23-year-old completed his move from Paris Saint-Germain on deadline day and was involved for Uruguay in their FIFA World Cup qualifier, starting in goalless draws with Paraguay and Venezuela.
During the international break, Ugarte won 20 duels for his nation – something Ten Hag will be hoping to see more of as the season progresses.
