Manchester United tasted their first defeat of the current Premier League season as Swansea City clinched a 2-1 victory over the former at Liberty Stadium on Sunday.
United mid-fielder Jaun Mata put his side into the lead in the 48th minute after both the teams were unable to score in the first half.
But, Andre Ayew of Swansea City levelled the score in the 61st minute, Sport24 reports.
However, it was striker Bafetimbi Gomis, who scored the match-winning goal for his club five minutes later.
With this win, Swansea has climbed to fourth place in the points table. It is for the first time that Swansea has remained unbeaten for four consecutive matches.
