Manchester United faced a humiliating 3-0 defeat against Bournemouth in the Premier League that will put further pressure on under-fire manager Michael Carrick, who benched captain Bruno Fernandes.
The Portuguese midfielder was left out of the starting team after criticising Carrick’s tactics in a 4-1 Champions League defeat to Italian side Como in midweek.
Rayan scored for the Cherries in the 38th minute, with Marcus Tavernier adding a second goal before the break to silence the Old Trafford crowd.

Evanlison’s superb third saw a trickle of fans head for the exits, and that trickle became a flood as the final whistle approached with Fernandes still on the bench.
The loss left Carrick’s team in 16th place on seven points, one above the relegation zone, and without a win in the league since beating Ipswich Town 5-2 on August 30.
