Bruno celebrating last goal

Manchester United recorded our biggest comeback under manager Erik ten Hag by overturning a two-goal deficit to beat Nottingham Forrest 3-2.

A dramatic afternoon at Old Trafford had seen the Reds go 2-0 down in just 3 minutes and 47 seconds – the earliest United have ever trailed by that score line in a Premier League game.

However, a characterful performance saw Taiwo Awoniyi and Willy Boly’s goals eventually cancelled out. Christian Eriksen pulled one back after 17 minutes when he converted Marcus Rashford’s cutback from the by-line.

Seven minutes after half-time, Casemiro levelled from a smart Bruno Fernandes free-kick routine, before the Portuguese – with United in the ascendency and heavily pressurising 10-man Forest (after Joe Worrall was dismissed) – completed the turnaround from the penalty spot.

Under Ten Hag’s tutelage, the Reds have completed a number of important comebacks to date – but none from two goals down to win the game.

Last season we were 2-0 down, also at home, to Leeds United but had to settle for a 2-2 draw thanks to second-half goals from Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho.

A number of stirring responses to adversity, in the best traditions of the glorious Sir Alex Ferguson era, came in the cup competitions, including rallies to beat West Ham United and Fulham in the Emirates FA Cup, and the memorable Europa League triumph over Barcelona.
