- MOURINHO: “That’s football”
Manchester United dominated the entire first half and much of the second as well, but they were wasteful in front of net, and Stoke goalkeeper Lee Grant was fantastic to keep the Red Devils to just one.

Either way, the goal was given and Burnley sunk despite a solid defensive showing that locked down the Gunners most of the way.
