MANCHESTER UNITED DRAWS AGAINST PORTO – Man-U Equalised in injury-time to avoid a fourth defeat of the season
Harry Maguire rescued a dramatic draw for 10-man Manchester United after they had surrendered a two-goal lead – and had Bruno Fernandes sent off – at Porto in the Europa League.
The injury-time effort could prove priceless for under-pressure manager Erik ten Hag, whose side were moments away from their fourth loss in 10 games to start the season.
Instead, substitute Maguire rose highest to meet Christian Eriksen’s corner and headed superbly into the bottom corner in the first of five added minutes. It was a thrilling conclusion to a chaotic encounter at Estadio do Dragao.
Marcus Rashford had given United a seventh-minute lead, driving in from the left, cleverly beating two defenders before his tame near-post shot squirmed past Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa. Rasmus Hojlund, starting his first game of the campaign, finished off a swift United attack to double the lead on 20 minutes and put his side in control.
