Manchester United's poor run of form came to an end on Wednesday evening as they returned to winning ways with a 3-1 victory over Northampton Town at Sixfields.
The Red Devils headed into the EFL Cup tie on the back of three-straight defeats in all competitions, but were good value for their lead which came via a well-struck Michael Carrick shot.
Alex Revell stunned the Premier League side by levelling from the spot shortly before half time, only for Ander Herrera and Marcus Rashford to find the net after the restart to make sure of the win for United.

Rob Page: "We were disappointed with our performance on Saturday and we know there is room for improvement. We've worked hard on the training ground and we want to get back to the levels we were at before the Chesterfield game. Hopefully we will do that on Wednesday night and we are going to go out and give it our best. We've earned the right to be here and we are going to approach it positively and do our best to get a result."
Jose Mourinho: "We started the season very well and had good results. I feel the first moment we had a defeat, a difficult situation, some of the boys are having a bit of difficulty coping with the negativity. You see Ashley Young, his mentality the happiness and confidence he brought to the game is something more players need to have."
