Anthony Martial netted a double to guide Manchester United to a 3-2 victory at Southampton in Sunday's Premier League encounter.
It was all Southampton in the opening stages of the game and the hosts deservedly grabbed the lead via Graziano Pelle, who saw another attempt hit the post as Ronald Koeman's side struggled to add a second.
United restored parity in the 34th minute when Martial got his first of the game and the France international again showed his composure after the break when he made it two - his third in as many matches for the club.
Juan Mata poured even more salt in the hosts' wounds halfway through the second half, with Pelle's late strike not enough to spark a comeback.
Sunday's results see Manchester United climb to second spot in the table with 13 points from six games, just two points behind leaders and local rivals City.
