United completely crushed last season's champions Leicester 4-1 after scoring all four goals in the first half.
The team looked very inspired and was in the lead 4-0 already at halftime.
Zlatan played the full game.
The losing trend is finally over. Even though it was "only" Northampton in the league cup, the 3-1-win for United tonight was important.
Zlatan came on at 1-1 and even though he wasn't involved in the two goals, his presence had a big impact.
Zlatan is in José Mourinho's squad for tonight's League Cup-game against Northampton Town, currently in League One. It remains to be seen if Zlatan plays though.
Tomorrow the EFL Cup starts, the English league cup. You face Northampton Town FC, currently in 11th place in League One. What do you think of the match?
Will you be on the squad, and do you have any indication from Mourinho if he's planning to start the best possible team?
You are big favorites to win the match, but things haven't been running smoothly in the last few matches. Do you see the match against Northampton as an opportunity to get back that winning feeling that you have mentioned?
Northampton have everything to win, and the players will want to perform the best 90 minutes of their lives tomorrow. How do you prepare for this David and Goliath situation? Is the difference between the two sides so large that motivation won't matter?

Today they lost their third straight game when Watford won 3-1 on Vicarage Road. Zlatan was involved in Rashford's 1-1, but failed to score.
Manchester United lost the first Europa League-game of the season against Feyenoord tonight.

Manchester United pushed for a goal in the last ten minutes and created some half chances, but they lacked the true urgency and quality in their offense tonight.
