After a 2-2 draw, they lost 11-12 in the shootout.
United took the lead against Burnley. In the 27th minute of the first half, the opponent's own goal led 1-0. Lyle Foster equalized in the 10th minute of the second half, but Bryan Mbömo's comeback goal two minutes later turned the game around. Burnley was formidable. Jadon Anthony's goal in the 21st minute of the second half balanced the game 2-2. United struggled to survive just before the end of the game. He got a penalty for his opponent's foul. Bruno Fernandes scored the winning goal as a kicker. Manchester United won by a score of three to two.

There is a problem. Matheus Cunha, who started on the day, collapsed complaining of pain on the ground during the game. British media outlet The Sun reported 'Cunya was injured during the Burnley match. He trudged out after about 30 minutes. It was frustrating for Manchester United fans. He looked like he was holding a hamstring in the game. The seriousness of the problem is not yet known. However, he reported that he could have doubts about his participation in the match against Manchester City during the A-match break in September.
Cunha left Wolverhampton (England) to join Manchester United ahead of this season. United have invested £62.5m to buy him. He started all three league games this season. However, he left after just three games due to injury.
The Sun said 'Cunya may not be able to play in the September A match. Manchester United fans were not only frustrated by Cunha's injury, but also embarrassed by Amorim's decision to replace him. Manager Amorim added Joshua Zirkjay instead of new striker Benjamin Sheshko. According to the media, fans responded, "'I don't understand the bizarre decision', 'Is Sheshuko's physical condition not yet', and 'Sheshuko is a three-option striker'.
