MANCHESTER UNITED fans booed in response to Erik ten Hag deciding to take off Rasmus Hojlund against Burnley.
The striker was hauled off just after the hour mark despite the 0-0 scoreline.
Kobbie Mainoo was also withdrawn and Scott McTominay brought on in his place.
The midfielder is United's third-highest scorer this season with ten goals, behind Hojlund and Bruno Fernandes.
He received a warm reception from the Old Trafford faithful after they made their feelings clear in response to Hojlund's withdrawal.
Amad Diallo replaced the Dane and the change paid off as Antony struck 15 minutes later - his first Premier League goal of the season.

Another added: "Jesus Christ Mainoo off instead of Eriksen. These bizarre substitutions will be the end of Ten Hag."
And a third said: "Absolutely shameful."

United have made a habit of conceding late goals of late and it cost them against Burnley as the game ended 1-1.
That goal could be crucial for Vincent Kompany's side who are now just two points off safety.
