EPL: Why we beat Burnley – Manchester United striker, Lukaku

Manchester United striker, Romelu Lukaku has explained why his side defeated Burnley 2-0 in Sunday’s Premier League fixture.

Two goals from Lukaku ensured victory for the Red Devils at the Turf Moor Stadium.

Lukaku said United won Burnley because the Red Devils’ players took their chances.

“That was really big. In the last game we started well but didn’t take our chances. This time, we did,” Lukaku told BBC Sport.

“We knew we had to grind out the result in the second half. We have character and we need to be more like that.

“The last game against Tottenham, we were disappointed. Today, we did score and we have to keep winning to try and catch the teams above us.

“Now we go into the international break and can switch off a bit. The manager has time to analyse our performances for the rest of the games in September.”

When asked if Mourinho would let them, Lukaku replied: “Oh yeah. He’s totally different behind the scenes and he’ll allow us to.”
