Manchester United were saved by their star player - Amad Diallo - as they rescued themselves from embarrassment against Southampton.

The Red Devils were second-best for most of the game against the Premier League's bottom club. And they pain was at its worst when Manuel Ugarte put into his own net to give the visitors the lead.

But Diallo, as he has done under Ruben Amorim, came to the rescure, scoring late on to prevent another defeat - and when it looked like it would be a point, the winger poked in Christian Eriksen's cross for the winner.
