Brentford edged a young and much-changed Manchester United side 4-3 in the Premier League on Sunday to give their hopes of qualifying for European competition a shot in the arm.
United fielded their youngest starting lineup in Premier League history and took the lead through Mason Mount but an own goal from Luke Shaw and a Kevin Schade header gave Brentford a 2-1 lead going into the break.
United briefly looked resurgent in the second half, but Schade grabbed another goal with a similar header at the far post before Yoane Wissa completed a free-flowing move to make it 4-1.
Alejandro Garnacho curled one in from the edge of the box before Amad Diallo made it 4-3 in added time but Brentford sealed the win to move up to ninth with 52 points while United remain in 15th place with 39 points.
