Manchester United came from two goals down inside four minutes to win 3-2 against 10-player Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford.
Goals from Taiwo Awoniyi and Willy Boly had stunned United and given Steve Cooper's side an excellent opportunity to claim their first away win in the Premier League since January but Christian Eriksen pulled one back and those hopes disappeared in the second half.
Casemiro levelled and when Joe Worrall was sent off for a foul on Bruno Fernandes, the momentum proved irresistible. The United captain scored the winner from the penalty spot after Marcus Rashford was fouled by Danilo. A dramatic win for Erik ten Hag's team.
"It is a horror start giving them two goals and of course making mistakes but I am very pleased with the comeback," said the United head coach afterwards. "There is a good spirit and energy in the team. They found a way to win."

Manchester United's vulnerability had been a feature of their opening two fixtures of the season - one won, one lost. But if their supporters had been hoping those issues had been addressed on the training ground they were soon disabused of that notion.
The opening goal was reminiscent of one scored by Demba Ba during Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's time in charge as Awoniyi raced clear. Marcus Rashford, of all people, was the man chasing him as Andre Onana beat a hapless retreat, stumbling before the striker even shot.
Manchester United deserve credit for extricating themselves from such a tricky situation and it is understandable if Ten Hag prefers to put the focus on the character of his players, while match-winner Fernandes talks of a team capable of great things.
That is not the overriding emotion when watching United's chaotic performances thus far this season. Fortunate against Wolves and punished by Tottenham, there was little evidence that those warnings had been heeded here, either in terms of team shape or urgency.
"It is a horror start giving them two goals and of course making mistakes but I am very pleased with the comeback. The leadership, how we stayed calm and composed, stuck to the plan, stuck to the belief and turned it around. We played very good football and out of our plan and our rules, we scored very good goals.
"At the start, every team has areas where they need to improve and definitely we also have some. But we have to progress there if we are to be successful. But you can see that this team has good character, good personality. There is a good spirit and energy in the team. They found a way to win."
Fernandes was crucial to that, United's outstanding performer. "I think in almost all aspects he played very good game of the highest level. Keeping calm, keeping his emotions under control and at the right moment using his emotions. He was brilliant in attack, making the difference. I was very pleased with his performance."

Erik ten Hag was pleased with his side's performance despite a 'horror start'
A section of Manchester United supporters stayed long after the final whistle to protest about the ownership of the Glazer family, calling for them to sell the club. Asked whether that has any impact on him and his players, Ten Hag responded.
Two key moments turned the game in the second half, the sending off of Worrall when Fernandes was adjudged to have been denied a clear scoring opportunity, and the penalty awarded against Danilo for making contact with Rashford inside the area. Cooper was left frustrated.
"I just think in games like these you need a bit, I don't even want to say good luck, to go your way, just things to go as they should. I don't want to get myself in trouble but the one thing I am surprised about is how quickly the decisions were made. On decisions that can define a game you tend to see referees take a bit more time particularly at the top level.
"There was a decision to make that is plain to see. I was just surprised how quickly... It was split-second stuff. You just need things to go your way. I am biting my tongue, to be honest, in terms of what I really feel. Of course, they were defining moments in the game.
"There were other things as well. Of course, it was an amazing start to score two goals. One of the frustrations that we will have taking away from the game is that we had some really good moments to score again, some real good positions in the box. I have to look at the moments where we could have done a bit better."
