Ashley Young tries to claim Man Utd winner

Published on: 25 November 2017

Ashley Young is hoping to claim the winner for Manchester United against Brighton.

Young's powerful shot deflected off Lewis Dunk and looped past Matthew Ryan in the 66th minute.

“I'm trying to [claim the goal]," he told MUTV. "But it's been given away as an own goal already. You just have to try to shoot and get it on target but it's more important to get the three points."

Young's shot may have been going off target before hitting Dunk, even if team-mate Victor Lindelof felt it should go to his colleague.

"I think it was Ashley's goal," he said. "He did good work!"

The England international was more concerned with the upcoming schedule as the busy spell continues for Jose Mourinho's men.

"It was massively important to start the week with a victory, especially when you're at home. We wanted to get the week off in the right way and we got the three points, when you get three points you're delighted with it."
