Man Utd's second strike against Brighton retrospectively awarded to McTominay

Scott McTominay has been retrospectively awarded with Manchester United's second goal in their 3-1 victory over Brighton in the Premier League.

The Scotland international's shot deflected off Davy Propper and into the net in the 19th minute, before the strike went down as an own-goal from the Brighton midfielder.

But United successfully appealed the award of the goal, which has eventually been given to McTominay following a decision by the Premier League’s Goal Accreditation Appeals Panel.

McTominay has now netted three goals in 12 Premier League appearances so far during the 2018-19 campaign.

McTominay played a vital role for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side last Sunday but picked up an ankle problem right at the death at Old Trafford.

As a result, the 22-year-old has withdrawn from Steve Clarke's Scotland squad for their upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers against Cyprus and Kazakhstan.
