Partizan vs Manchester United LIVE result: Score, goals and latest updates from Europa League

All the action Serbia from as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wins with a young United side

Man United's top ten all time goal scorers

Manchester United ended their wretched 11-match winless run on the road as Anthony Martial's spot-kick secured a hard-fought victory played out to a hostile backdrop at Partizan Belgrade.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer kicked off his reign with a club record nine successive away wins, only to endure a remarkable 33-week wait stretching back to March's jaw-dropping Champions League triumph at Paris St Germain.

No longer at the continent's top table, the Europa League provided the platform for their first victory on the road since then, with United digging deep amid Partizan pressure - from both players and their unrelenting fans - as Martial's first-half penalty secured a 1-0 triumph.

It was a welcome return to winning ways at a poignant setting as Partizan Stadium hosted United's final match before the Munich air disaster on a refuelling stop on their way back from Belgrade.

Club officials paid respect to the 23 killed on the morning of a game that saw Partizan fans stream backing into a stadium after serving a two-match UEFA sanction for racist behaviour.

It led to understandable concerns of a repeat of the shameful scenes in Bulgaria last week, but this Group L encounter appeared to pass without any such behaviour as United got back to winning ways - albeit not in the most convincing fashion.

Jesse Lingard and former Rangers man Umar Sadiq hit the woodwork in quick succession during an even first half that United would snatch the lead in, with Martial converting the penalty won by the direct running of Brandon Williams.

It capped a promising display by the 19-year-old on his second senior start and fellow teenager James Garner held his own in a hostile environment, but Solskjaer's side rode their luck in Belgrade.

Savo Milosevic's men pushed throughout the second half but were just unable to level.

GOAL! Arsenal 3-2 Vitoria (Pepe 90+2)

That was simply outstanding from Pepe, who has finally arrived as an Arsenal player.

He steps up to take the free-kick and whips this one in with similar pace and power.

A brace for the Ivorian, and incredibly harsh on Vitoria.

Full Time: Arsenal 3-2 Vitoria

How have Arsenal managed to pull that one out of the bag?

The answer: Nicolas Pepe and his two stunning free-kicks ten minutes apart.

Arsenal looked lost in the first half and were deservedly behind at the break after goals from Marcus Edwards and Duarte. 

Martinelli had cancelled out Edwards' opener, but it was not until the 80th minute that they equalised again through the first Pepe free-kick.

And then he had one final push to whip in another set-play and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

United had an Anthony Martial penalty to thank for the win in a game in which they failed to register a shot on target from open play.

Arsenal meanwhile had to come from behind twice as Nicolas Pepe stole the show with two sublime free-kicks in a 3-2 win.
