Maguire and Lindelof both made their first starts for United since the resumption of domestic football, keeping a clean sheet in the win, which saw the Reds move up to equal points with third-placed Newcastle United in the Premier League.

Speaking to MUTV after the game, United’s no.2 discussed his partnership with the captain and called him a “fantastic player” to play alongside.

“It is nice to be back," said Lindelof. "It’s always nice to get some minutes in the legs and to help the team get the three points. It felt good physically and, obviously, I have played a lot of games with 'H' [Harry Maguire] so I though he worked well today.
