Manchester United’s winless run in the Premier League reached six games after a 4-3 defeat at Brentford on Sunday.
Mason Mount gave the visitors the lead with just his second goal for the club, finishing off a fine cross from winger Alejandro Garnacho.
Brentford equalised when captain Mikkel Damsgaard saw his cross deflect in off defender Luke Shaw, who was captaining a much-changed United side.
