Stoke 2-1 Manchester United:

Jubilant: Charlie Adam (centre) celebrates with Mark Hughes after his two goals ended Stoke's run of six matches without a win


Collision: Phil Jones was taken to hospital after a nasty looking head injury

Stunning: Adam's second goal was a brilliant strike into the top corner

Fortunate: Adam's first goal took a heavy free-kick off of Michael Carrick

Hitting the mark: Adam celebrates his opening goal

From our Match Zone: As this heat map shows, Charlie Adam covered a huge amount of the pitch in a man of the Match performance
It meant
Michael Carrick was forced into central defence alongside Chris Smalling
in just the game you would not choose to be weakened.

Another: Robin van Persie scored his second goal in as many games since his return


Short lived: Van Persie brought his team back into the game but they were only level for five minutes

Hurt: Jones went down after a heavy collision with Jon Walters

Treatment: Phil Jones is attended to by United staff and paramedics

Carried off: Jones is taken away on a stretcher by staff

Woe: Jonny Evans was forced off after just 11 minutes

Diving save: Asmir Begovic watches the ball go away from goal after making the save

Blocked: Erik Pieters dives in to deny Mata's shot

Strained: Mata looks in pain after picking up a knock in the second half
Dejected: Mata and David De Gea trudge off the pitch after another defeat
