United looked to be holding out for a 1-0 win before Scott McTominay capitalised on poor distribution from Ederson to double the lead with a cool finish from range.
The win means that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side move up to fifth ahead of Wolverhampton Wanderers and sit just three points behind Frank Lampard’s Chelsea side.
