Defender Victor Lindelof scored in the second half as struggling Manchester United breathed a collective sigh of relief with a 1-0 victory over Luton Town in the Premier League on Saturday.

Erik ten Hag's team, who have won two successive league games after stumbling to their worst start since 1962, provisionally climbed two spots in the standings into sixth place on 21 points after 12 games.

Luton Town, who have just one league victory in their debut season in the top flight, are 17th.

United created numerous chances as they dominated the game before Lindelof finally broke the deadlock in the 59th minute, the Swede smashing home from 16 yards after Luton failed to clear Marcus Rashford's cross. Lindelof last scored for United in December 2020, against Leeds United.

The victory was a welcome reprieve for United, who have lost nine of their last 18 games in all competitions, have been eliminated from the League Cup and are struggling in the Champions League after a 4-3 loss at Copenhagen on Wednesday.

Wolves stun Spurs

Wolverhampton Wanderers stunned Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 with stoppage-time goals from Pablo Sarabia and Mario Lemina.

Gary O'Neil's decision to bring on Sarabia as a late substitute paid off handsomely as the Spaniard scored the equaliser in the 91st minute and provided the pass for the 97th-minute winner.

"It is an amazing feeling, we've been pushing so hard. We deserve this game," Lemina told TNT Sports.

"We had the best tactics to play against them and we showed it today. I scored the winner and I'm really happy."

Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou was forced to field a makeshift back four due to injuries and suspensions, with the only regular in the starting lineup being Pedro Porro.

Arsenal log 3 points

Arsenal moved level on points with leaders Manchester City courtesy of a hard-fought victory over Burnley.

The Gunners had struggled to break down a disciplined Clarets side for much of the first half but broke the visitors' resistance on the stroke of half-time when Leandro Trossard nodded in at the far post for Arsenal's 1,000th goal at Emirates Stadium.

Burnley stay in the relegation zone while Arsenal trail City on goal difference — although Pep Guardiola's team can restore their three-point lead with victory at Chelsea on Sunday.
