Burnley struck back almost immediately after Cristiano Ronaldo extended Manchester United’s advantage to three.
Football fans were left rubbing their eyes after Aaron Lennon was named in the Burnley starting XI to take on the Red Devils this evening.
It baffles the mind to think that the former England international could be starting a Premier League game in 2021, but he is ‘only’ 34-years-old.
Lennon rolled back the years on the Old Trafford turf after running at the Man United defence and slotting the ball cooly past the helpless David De Gea.

Tottenham fans must be feeling reminiscent seeing Lennon do this tonight, but remarkably, it is his first EVER goal at Old Trafford. Could it spark the comeback?
Burnley hit back immediately!

You can’t blame Bailly for this goal. Plenty of players around Lennon to get possession back and Maguire. Don’t start me on him😭 How are you jockeying him for this long and allowing him to do that?? Basics of defending. He’s rubbish man #MUFC 🔴🇾🇪 pic.twitter.com/oEbosspv7y
