It was United’s first domestic away defeat in more than a year.

Van de Beek sent a message out this morning promising that United will come back stronger.

The Dutchman contributed to United’s goal, dummying the ball for Mason Greenwood to net his fifth goal of the season.

It was an intelligent piece of play from the former Ajax star, who was starting in place of Bruno Fernandes.

United are now heading into the international break and Van de Beek should get some game time for the Netherlands.

After a recent spell out injured, it should help to get his fitness levels back up, and return in good condition to help United to kick on over the remaining few weeks of the season.
