Mason Mount looked crestfallen when he left the Brentford Community Stadium in March.

Mount scored on his return from a four-month lay-off due to a calf injury and thought he’d produced the matchwinner for Manchester United deep into injury time.

Brentford dominated United that night, recording 31 shots, and scored a deserved equaliser in the ninth minute of added time. Kristoffer Ajer’s goal denied Mount a watershed moment and he politely declined a request to speak to a reporter as he exited for the team bus.

Raphael Varane was the only United player to speak as he walked through the mixed zone and the Frenchman provided a succinct update on his injury after his substitution.
