Manchester United’s struggles continue as they fall 4-3 to Brentford in a dramatic Premier League encounter on May 4, 2025. The Red Devils have now gone six consecutive league games without a win — their worst streak since December 2015 under Louis van Gaal.
United took the lead early in the match with a goal from Mason Mount in the 14th minute, assisted by Alejandro Garnacho. Mason Mount’s opening goal was particularly significant — it marked his first goal in over 400 days. The last time Mount found the back of the net was on March 30, 2024, making this strike a long-awaited moment for the midfielder, who has faced injury setbacks and inconsistent form since joining Manchester United.However, Brentford responded swiftly, equalising through Lewis-Shandon Baptiste in the 27th and taking the lead six minutes later thanks to Kevin Schade’s goal.
Despite a late comeback effort, United were already trailing 4-1 by the 74th minute. Goals from Garnacho (82’) and Amad Diallo (90+5’) in stoppage time were not enough to salvage a point.
Notable Stats and Streaks:
- Manchester United are winless in six straight Premier League matches, their longest run since December 2015.
- The club has only 3 wins in their last 22 away games in the league against London-based teams (5 draws, 14 losses).
- Brentford scored three goals in just six minutes during the second half (68’, 70’, 74’).
- United conceded four goals in a Premier League game for the third time this season.
