His emphatic finish at the east end of Old Trafford, which put us 2-1 ahead in the second half, was also his first goal as a Red at the Theatre of Dreams and his second of the week after he opened his United account in Wednesday's League Cup tie at Grimsby.
Mbeumo told BBC Match of the Day that he was "very happy" to contribute to the victory over Burnley, and his efforts have been recognised by supporters, who have chosen him as our Man of the Match.
The vote opened on ManUtd.com and in the United App shortly after full-time at a raucous Old Trafford, and closed earlier this afternoon with Mbeumo out on top, having accumulated a majority 55 per cent of all selections.
