Manchester United welcomed Southampton to Old Trafford on Friday night looking to make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League at the start of the 2016-17 campaign.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's second league goal of the season saw the home side take a 1-0 lead into the half-time break.
Ibrahimovic then scored a second from the penalty spot in the 52nd minute as the Red Devils recorded all the points on what was Jose Mourinho's home debut as head coach.
