Ally McCoist spots interim Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick's 'intelligent' tactical tweak involving Scott McTominay which helped preserve lead against Burnley

Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick has been praised for an 'intelligent' tactical tweak during their 3-1 victory over Burnley.

The Red Devils roared into a 3-0 first-half lead thanks to goals from Scott McTominay, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ben Mee who put the ball into the back of his own net.

Burnley got one back after 38 minutes through Aaron Lennon and aimed to put more pressure on United with towering centre-forward Chris Wood looking to cause problems.
