Marcus Rashford And Alejandro Garnacho save the day by converting two spectacular goals to secure three points for Manchester United.
Sancho back in the starting XI in place of Alejandro Garnacho. The former Borussia Dortmund star has spent a period of time away from the main group, with Ten Hag previously admitting he needed help both physically and mentally.
Garnacho responds positively after he was relegated to the bench after starting in midweek and the response to Erik ten Hag was with a terrific winning goal.
The win has propelled Manchester United to second position above Manchester City with just one point difference and reduced the point gap from the league leaders Arsenal to five point.

Ten Hag pulled a surprise today by bringing back the mighty Harry Maguire to the starting XI against critics on Maguire.
Martinez and Varane have also established themselves as the starting pair, but with his side still battling on four fronts. Ten Hag is keen to keep his options refreshed
Ten Hag added: "Rotation is one part of it. They have had a lot of games to cover- with the World Cup and now already back and a lot of games coming after each other and a lot of games ahead as well. The other part is also tactics."
Leeds United had showed fight, commitment and endeavor in two games against their fierce rivals this week - but still have been unable to find that elusive win.
It means the Yorkshire outfit are now nine Premier League games without a victory (D4 L5), their longest winless run in the top-flight since going 10 games without success between March and August 1997.
The manager-less club are now one point and one place outside of the bottom three.
Both Leeds United and Manchester United have been quick to condemn the offensive chanting from fans that took place during this afternoon's fixture.
The Premier League have also acted to comment upon the songs that focused on historic tragic events in Munich and Istanbul.
