Hume rues Sunderland defeat: This is why Man Utd won

United won 2-0 via goals from Mason Mount and Benjamin Sesko. 

Hume felt Sunderland began the game flat-footed, explaining afterwards: “We know at this level, you can’t start that slow and expect to be in the game but we came out in the second half and we were better.

“We created a few chances and probably should have taken them. We were poor in our decision making but we know that.

“We will stay as positive as we can, enjoy the international break and come back ready.

“We’re disappointed we lost the game. We know why but we’ll try and keep the positivity.”
