Ben Brereton Diaz sets an unenviable Premier League record as Southampton lose to 3-0 at home to Manchester United

Southampton forward Ben Brereton Diaz has set a new Premier League record of making the most appearances in the competition without being on the winning side, after his side lost 3-0 at home to Manchester United.

The Chile international has now not featured in the winning side of a Premier League game for 18 matches, having overtaken the unenviable record set by Marvin Sordell.

Sordell set the record between 2012 and 2015 for Burnley and Bolton Wanderers, with 17 games without a win. That included 14 losses and four draws.

United's dominate win over the Saints consigned Brereton Diaz to the annals of Premier League history, as his side failed to capitalise on early chances in the game, including a penalty, which Red Devils' keeper Andre Onana saved in the 32nd minute.
