Sheffield United scored a dramatic late equaliser to salvage a point against Manchester United after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s had recovered from two goals down to lead at Bramall Lane.
Oliver McBurnie’s 90th-minute strike was awarded following a nervous wait as the video assistant referee reviewed the goal for a potential handball as the forward controlled Callum Robinson’s cross.
Three goals in a blistering seven minutes appeared to have rescued Solskjaer’s largely lacklustre side, who looked all but beaten after Lys Mousset added to John Fleck’s opener for Chris Wilder’s side seven minutes after the interval.
But 19-year-old left-back Brandon Williams’ goal after 72 minutes sparked the visitors into life before substitute Mason Greenwood levelled and Marcus Rashford sent the visitors ahead 11 minutes from time.
That was not enough to see off a resilient Sheffield United, however, with Manchester United ninth in the standings after McBurnie’s late equaliser.
Manchester United have conceded three-plus goals against a newly promoted Premier League side for the first time since September 2014 (5-3 defeat v Leicester)
