Manchester United did just enough to secure their first home Premier League win of the season on Saturday - though West Brom will feel aggrieved by the nature of the result at Old Trafford.
Slaven Bilic’s Baggies had a penalty ruled out after referee David Coote overturned his decision following a VAR review of the pitchside monitor - and United’s winner came as a result of more controversy at the other end.
United were awarded a spot-kick after Juan Mata’s cross hit the arm of Darnell Furlong, and Coote pointed to the spot.
Bruno Fernandes saw his first penalty saved by the brilliant Sam Johnstone - an academy graduate of United - but the West Brom goalkeeper came well off his line to make the stop, with Coote ordering a retake which Fernandes buried at the second time of asking.
The result was an unconvincing one for United, but it could mark a turning point for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer given it is the Red Devils’ first League win at Old Trafford this season.
