Man Utd boss Solskjaer salutes Henderson after vital late save in club debut

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was happy with Dean Henderson's performance on his Manchester United debut, as the goalkeeper made a vital late save in Tuesday's win over Luton Town.

Juan Mata gave United the lead in the Carabao Cup tie with a first-half penalty, but the Championship side had a big chance to level the game late.

Henderson made a key stop from a Tom Lockyer header at the back post, before late goals from substitutes Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood sealed a 3-0 win for the visitors.
