After a 2-1 loss to Brighton Hove & Albion last weekend at Old Trafford, the Red Devils made the trip to London for their second Premier League fixture of the 2022-23 season. However, Erik ten Hag’s side were dismantled inside 35 minutes as the Bees scored four goals.
Josh Dasilva opened the scoring, thanks to a David de Gea error before Jensen doubled the lead with a well-placed shot from inside the box. Ben Mee piled on the pressure with a header at the half-hour mark before Bryan Mbuemo slotted in the fourth after a swift counter.
