Manchester United registered an unconvincing 1-0 win at Partizan Belgrade in a tense Europa League Group L clash on Thursday as Anthony Martial's 43rd-minute penalty secured their first away win since March.
The match was played under tight security amid fears of crowd trouble but it produced a cracking atmosphere as Partizan coach Savo Milosevic's appeals to home fans to refrain from offensive chants proved successful.
United, languishing 14th in the Premier League, top the group on seven points from three games, two ahead of Dutch side AZ Alkmaar who thrashed Kazakhstan's Astana 6-0. Partizan have four points and Astana none.
United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was happy with United's first away win in 12 games in all competitions and their first away goal since August, but not with his team's performance.
"We need to learn when to get the second goal and when to get the third," he said.
"Today we had loads of opportunities to make sure we were in a comfortable lead but we didn’t play the pass forward."
