Partizan vs Manchester United LIVE result: Score, goals and latest updates from Europa League

All the action Serbia from as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wins with a young United side

Man United's top ten all time goal scorers

Manchester United ended their wretched 11-match winless run on the road as Anthony Martial's spot-kick secured a hard-fought victory played out to a hostile backdrop at Partizan Belgrade.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer kicked off his reign with a club record nine successive away wins, only to endure a remarkable 33-week wait stretching back to March's jaw-dropping Champions League triumph at Paris St Germain.

No longer at the continent's top table, the Europa League provided the platform for their first victory on the road since then, with United digging deep amid Partizan pressure - from both players and their unrelenting fans - as Martial's first-half penalty secured a 1-0 triumph.

It was a welcome return to winning ways at a poignant setting as Partizan Stadium hosted United's final match before the Munich air disaster on a refuelling stop on their way back from Belgrade.

Club officials paid respect to the 23 killed on the morning of a game that saw Partizan fans stream backing into a stadium after serving a two-match UEFA sanction for racist behaviour.

It led to understandable concerns of a repeat of the shameful scenes in Bulgaria last week, but this Group L encounter appeared to pass without any such behaviour as United got back to winning ways - albeit not in the most convincing fashion.

Jesse Lingard and former Rangers man Umar Sadiq hit the woodwork in quick succession during an even first half that United would snatch the lead in, with Martial converting the penalty won by the direct running of Brandon Williams.

It capped a promising display by the 19-year-old on his second senior start and fellow teenager James Garner held his own in a hostile environment, but Solskjaer's side rode their luck in Belgrade.

Savo Milosevic's men pushed throughout the second half but were just unable to level.

The battle of the unbeaten records.

Solskjaer has been speaking about the inclusion of James Garner in the Man Utd Xi ahead of tonight's game:

"He’s has been excellent and he’s been waiting for his chance,” Solskjaer told MUTV.

“Tonight with the experience he has around, it will be a good start for him. He’s got more or less 300 caps around him so don’t think he’s ever played with so much experience around him and he’s an exciting player.”

This might not be quite accurate

United have looked to start this game brightly and their first attack sees them attack down the right before it is snuffed out due to Wan Bissaka's slip.

It's another slip and this one is lucky not to cost United something.

Sergio Romero comes out to clear the ball but just before doing so nearly lost his footing and therefore slices his clearance out for a throw in.

It seems United have some adjusting to do.

Umar Sadiq is the real threat for Partizan tonight and he gives United a taster of his threat with a run which causes Maguire to give away a free-kick.

From it the Partizan striker heads over at the back post.

A name that will be familiar with Arsenal fans, Takuma Asano is the next one to run at the United defence.

But just as he has done far too often in his career so far, he wastes the opportunity after good pressure from Wan Bissaka.
