During the match, Casemiro was named the player of the match thanks to his impressive performance, including 11 tackles and 9 clearances.
Manchester United now requires only one win to confirm its spot in the Champions League come next season.
“Manchester United, almost back in Champions League with only one more win needed… if Brighton win all remaining games. Michael Carrick has already won more PL games than Ruben Amorim as Man United manager this season,” said Fabrizio Romano
It was also a night to remember for Bruno Fernandes, who recorded his 19th Premier League assist, one assist shy of Kevin de Bruyne and Thierry Henry’s records.
“Bruno Fernandes reaches 19 Premier League assists… …just one assist away from equalling the records of Kevin de Bruyne and Thierry Henry, two away for breaking the record,” said Fabrizio Romano
