Manchester United registered their third clean sheet in their last five matches with a comfortable 2-0 win over Sheriff Tiraspol at the Zimbru Stadium in Moldova on Thursday evening.

After seeing last Sunday's trip to Crystal Palace and this forthcoming weekend's clash with Leeds United both postponed, Ten Hag opted to field his strongest available line-up, in the hope of securing their first Group E points.

United lost their opening game, going down 1-0 to Real Sociedad last week, after Ten Hag chose to tinker with his starting line-up, following a relentless Premier League schedule.
