Fernandes hattrick inspires Man Utd’s rout of Ipswich
Bruno Fernandes gets the Red Devils' Premier League season up and running as they come from a goal down to thrash Ipswich 5-2.
Manchester United bounced back from a humiliating 2-0 defeat to Hull by thrashing Ipswich 5-2 at Old Trafford. Bruno Fernandes' hattrick led the Red Devils' resurgence, following a goalless draw against Hull the previous weekend. Leif Davis opened the scoring for Ipswich, but Fernandes equalized before half-time and then scored from the penalty spot after Jacob Greaves' own goal put United ahead.
The captain then completed his hat-trick from close range and also provided an assist to Bryan Mbeumo. Marcus Rashford, making his first start in nearly two years, and Kobbie Mainoo's return were significant factors in the win. However, United's defense still had questions to answer, with Senne Lammens saving a one-on-one from Julio Enciso and Ipswich's Chuba Akpom scoring a consolation goal in stoppage time.
