Diogo Dalot believes the stunning late turnaround against Brentford can be a watershed moment in Manchester United’s season. Erik ten Hag’s men were staring down the barrel of a third Old Trafford defeat in eight days as Saturday’s Premier League match headed into second-half stoppage time. Mathias Jensen capitalised on a comedy of errors to put Brentford on course for a famous victory that would have ratcheted up the already intense pressure and scrutiny on out-of-sorts United. But, unlike their previous defeats to Crystal Palace and Galatasaray, the Red Devils found a way to fight back as super sub Scott McTominay’s brace sealed a remarkable 2-1 triumph. Trailing at 92 minutes 46 seconds, this was United’s latest ever Premier League comeback and Dalot echoed manager Ten Hag’s view that Saturday must be “a turning point” in their season. “I think it means a little bit more than three points for us after these last couple of weeks,” the Portugal right-back said. “I think the way that we won – obviously I didn’t mind scoring a few goals earlier than the 90 minutes – but I think it shows we are here to fight, we are here to suffer together. “I think the fans were behind us every step of the way and I think this can be a turning point for us. We want to look at this as a turning point and we know it’s going to be difficult. “That’s how it’s meant to be to be as a Manchester United player and today I think was proof we can fight until the end.” I think it shows we are here to fight, we are here to suffer together Diogo Dalot United dug deep at Old Trafford, where after the game Ten Hag bemoaned a lack of hunger during their meek, error-strewn start to the season. Those issues were clear in Tuesday’s 3-2 Champions League defeat at home to Galatasaray, increasing the external focus on Old Trafford that Dalot has previously called a “killing machine”. “We did a lot of things together, everyone getting together,” he said of the build-up. “We focused on what we have to do tactically. “We always do that, but especially coming into the game, feeling like we had to be a proper team. “Obviously we controlled the game, we created chances, we could have scored goals, but the most important thing for me was the way we fought until the end, the way the fans showed the support for us and that shows they are with us. “They have been with us all the way and we have to give (back) like this.” Dalot said it was clear to see the team “gave everything” on Saturday afternoon as McTominay’s 87th-minute introduction sparked a scarcely-believable comeback. The 24-year-old says he sees a lot of himself in the selfless, hardworking midfielder, who was linked with a summer move but stayed to fight for his place at his boyhood club. “When Scott comes in, with all the energy that he has, the mentality, that shows that we are a proper team and I’m very happy with the result,” Dalot said. “I think if you’re a Manchester United fan you know that Scott will always love the club and will always fight for his place. “I don’t know what was in his head (over the summer), but I’m sure that once he decided that he has to stay I think he will give 100 per cent. “Now we just have to help him to get along every day with us and be together as a team.” While United went into the international break on a high, Brentford were left reeling from a last-gasp gut punch and even later knockout blow. Brentford midfielder Vitaly Janelt said: “We played a very good game and at 90 minutes we were leading at Old Trafford. “Then, in five minutes, they turn around the game and win 2-1. “We have to finish a counter or a set-piece to make it 2-0, that’s the only thing I would say we can do better. “It’s nice to have a good performance but obviously we want the points. “Sometimes I don’t care if we play s***, as long as we get three points. We can turn it around together.” Read More Rookie Jimmy O’Brien ready to take on New Zealand if injuries bite for Ireland Learning how to win ugly a sign of England’s progress – Ben Earl Johnny Sexton: Facing All Blacks out for revenge ‘biggest challenge in rugby’ Jonathan Humphreys: Wales mood took hit following injuries in Georgia victory Sione Tuipulotu left frustrated after Scotland knocked out of World Cup Spurs pay tribute to ‘amazing, outstanding’ Cristian Romero after Luton win

A company has been slammed for barely recognising more than four decades of service by one of its workers who was retiring – and his co-workers had to step in to save the day. An elderly American man John Bartlett worked in the warehouse of an unnamed firm for 42 years. But all he got for his service was a certificate and a sub-par barbeque, his coworkers claimed. Fortunately, they took matters into their own hands. Colleague Sonia shared a clip to social media of John, who is in his 70s, going into work on his last day. She felt his years of work had gone under appreciated. “Today is my co-worker’s last day. He worked for this company for 42 years making minimum wage,” Sonia wrote in the video. “The company only threw him a barbecue and gave him a certificate. He takes the bus and Bart (train) to get here every day on time. He’s 70+.” “He loves working here so much he didn’t want to retire—[He got] No bonus, just a barbecue and a certificate. Don’t be a slave to your job. Thank you John for your loyalty.” The video has now been deleted, but got hundreds of thousands of views and got thousands of comments from people on the internet who wanted to help John feel more valued. Sonia started a GoFundMe in response, saying on the page that he would make it to work “rain or shine” and that he was extremely dependable. He was “one of the most talented and hard-working” employees at the company, she added. “He has no wife or kids, however, he does have a nephew whom he loves dearly,” she wrote in the fundraiser. “It would be nice to give him some kind of company or something to do so he knows that he’s special and loved.” Since the GoFundMe was created, it has raised $68,178. Sonia plans to print out names and messages from John’s supporters. The money has already surpassed the retirement funds John had before. “Happy retirement John! Your hard work and dedication is a motivation to all of us,” one person said in their donation. “Happy retirement, John. You deserve more than what this company has offered you. Wish you all the best in your life and your future,” another said. “Dear John, Your story has really resonated with me. I hope you read all of the comments from well wishes and know that your contribution to the world has been seen. I hope you take pride in that knowledge because you absolutely deserve to. I am honored to contribute to your retirement.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

A woman has gone viral on TikTok for showcasing a string of tips to 'keep yourself safe in hotels'. Some have praised her for sharing her lengthy routine, while others have called it overly cautious. In the clip that's racked up 14.1 million views, Victoria (@victorias.way) said she starts her holiday by putting the 'do not disturb' sign on the hotel door and locking it. She then uses tissue to cover the peephole, before putting a washcloth in the deadbolt loop "to close the gap." Victoria then makes use of the ironing board, by placing it behind the door and rolling a bath towel to put behind the handle to stop intruders. For "added security," Victoria adds a clothes hanger to the mix by connecting it to the door handle and deadbolt loop. @victorias.way Hotel safety tips #hoteltips #hoteltipsandtricks #hotelroom #hoteltip #hotellife #hoteltipps #hoteladvice #hoteltrick #hotel #safety #LifeHack #besafe #kidnappedinhotel #hotelsafetytips #hotelsafetyhacks #hotelsafe #hotelsafehack #selfdefense #learntofightathome #learntofight #viral #viralvideo #pageforyou #joeteti #dalecomstock #Unlock #unlockdoors #ducktape #fyp #foryou #xyzba #trending #trend #traveladvice #advice #traveltok #hostess The TikToker's clip was soon inundated with thousands of divisive comments, with some praising her methods and adding more to the list.

Another said they had "never stayed in hotels where I felt so unsafe," adding: "Is it an American thing? I am genuinely curious."
