Ruben Amorim’s first match as Manchester United manager offered an early glimpse of promise but also showed the immense challenge he faces.

Despite taking an early lead, United were largely outplayed by newly-promoted Ipswich Town, settling for a 1-1 draw at Portman Road.

Amorim introduced a 3-4-3 formation, and his tactical fingerprints were evident within the opening two minutes.

Amad Diallo, deployed at wing-back, delivered a sharp cross for Marcus Rashford, who scored just his second Premier League goal of the season.

The fast start raised hopes of a turnaround under the new boss.

However, Kieran McKenna’s Ipswich displayed greater zeal, with Omari Hutchinson equalizing through a deflected thunderbolt in the first half.

The Tractor Boys pushed United to the brink, forcing Andre Onana into several critical saves to keep the score level.
