Amorim: Loss was an 'important' lesson for United youngsters

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim says it is important for his young players to learn from Sunday afternoon's defeat to Brentford.

The Reds lost 4-3 to the Bees at the Gtech Community Stadium. Mason Mount opened the scoring but an unfortunate own goal from Luke Shaw, a brace from Kevin Schade and a fourth from Yoane Wissa put the hosts out of sight.

There was a sniff of a late comeback with late goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Amad but, in truth, it always looked like being Brentford's day after they went 2-1 up in the first half.
