Although there is no hope to close the gap with the top team, playing at Old Tranfford, coach Jose Mourinho and his team still want to win all three points to affirm their experience with the teams behind. However, their opponent is Burnley - a phenomenon of this year's season, so the determination of the home team is not easy.
As a guest but S. Dyche's students have a more impressive performance. As soon as the match had just begun, in a situation of dispute, the home team's defender made a pity for Jeff Hendrick, so that Burnley enjoyed a free kick. The mistake is not over there, from the free kick of Turf Moor, both Rojo and Jones did not break the ball definitely, making the ball confused in front of De Gea's goal. Do not miss the good opportunity, Ashley Barnes quickly finished from close range, opened the score for the match.
While the white shirt players tried to attack, threatened to the point of alarming the opponent's goal with continuous balls, the defender of the home team revealed weaknesses with unclear people and their striker was quite ungainly in the mutant ball to create mutations. And the second goal in the 36th minute is what they have to take after mistakes. From a distance of 22m, Steven Defour made a perfect free kick, bringing the ball into the high corner, making the goalkeeper of the Red Man underground.
The second half began with the change of MU, Lingard and Mkhitaryan on the pitch instead of Ibrahimovic and Rojo. It seems that the Portuguese teacher realized the problem and it was clear that his change was right. As soon as he came in, Lingard had a shot at a distance just a few meters away from the goal but the ball beat the goalkeeper Pope, the bar and went out.
He also did not regret it, because shortly after that, with Ashley Young's cross, the ball reached the foot of midfielder number 14. hit the heels perfectly, the ball went wide and landed in N. Pope's goal. Lingard shortened the score to 1-2 to light up the hope of getting points for the home team.
But it was not until the final minutes of extra time that their hopes came true. No one but Lingard scored, he scored the second goal with a beautiful volley that made the Pope look up at the goalkeeper.
With a 2-2 draw, MU has 43 points after twenty rounds, just one point ahead of Chelsea. As for Burnley, who dropped three points while having an early advantage, Mr. Dyche and his team have not been able to improve their ranking on the rankings.
