For the second match in a row, Manchester United held a 1-0 lead away from home. For the second match in a row, they turned to their bench to help guide them safely towards the finishing line. For the second match in a row, summer signing Casemiro helped them do just that.
United's last two away wins at Southampton and Leicester were hardly headline performances, but what they did represent was the steady progress that is being made under Erik ten Hag already.
It is less than three weeks ago that this side was humiliated at the hands of Brentford in the second game of the season. To turn that around with back-to-back victories on the road is no mean feat.
