Bruno Fernandes scored his first Manchester United hat-trick as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side overpowered old rivals Leeds to make the perfect start to the new Premier League season.
The Portugal midfielder opened the scoring on the half-hour mark at a packed Old Trafford, but Luke Ayling’s thunderous strike drew Leeds level early in the second half.
Mason Greenwood restored the hosts’ lead with a crisp finish less than two minutes later, before Fernandes’ low shot was ruled to have crossed the line by referee Paul Tierney after a quick check of goalline technology.
