The latest goals scored by Manchester United in Premier League history

STEVE BRUCE v SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1993 (96:02)

We had to delve deep into the archives to find the exact goal time for this memorable effort from our centre-back, which completed one of the most remarkable United comebacks ever. Earlier in the second half, referee Mike Peck had been forced to leave the pitch with injury – and his replacement John Hilditch awarded the Owls a penalty, which John Sheridan converted. 

With the Reds aiming to keep Aston Villa at bay at the top of the Premier League table, Bruce picked the perfect moment to end his six-month goal drought, nodding in an Irwin corner to equalise. Then, as the clock ticked into a seventh minute of stoppage time due to Peck’s early departure, and with United throwing everything at the visitors, our no.4 arrived late to bury a deflected Gary Pallister cross into the bottom corner and, with it, pave the way for Alex Ferguson’s men to lift a first league title in 26 long years.

SCOTT MCTOMINAY v MANCHESTER CITY, MARCH 2020 (95:59)

This list is dominated by goals scored in 2020: perhaps unsurprisingly, given the recent introduction of VAR, which generally means more stoppages in games. There was no controversy or late refereeing drama involved in Scott McTominay’s strike, though. In what is, to date, the last game played at Old Trafford with fans in attendance, our homegrown midfielder latched on to a wayward Ederson clearance, lobbing the ball into the net from a full 40 yards and sending the home support wild at the end of a highly emotional afternoon.
