Manchester United stay in fifth place after a frustrating draw against an impressive Southampton. A ravenous Anthony Martial turned a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead during a pulsating first half, but United sat on that lead after the break and were punished when the substitute Michael Obafemi scored an injury-time equaliser.
Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial had turned the tables after an early Stuart Armstrong strike and looked to have won it for United, but Ole’s men were denied a crucial three points by Michael Obafemi’s injury time header.
United skipper Harry Maguire told Sky Sports: “We are disappointed. We got control of the game and had numerous chances to kill the game off.
“Loads of areas we need to improve on.
“They’re a team that has got no pressure on them.
“They pressed like mad, they jumped like mad and we didn’t handle it well in the first 20 minutes.
“We gave the ball away far too much but we felt like we did enough to win the game in the end.
“Hopefully Brandon is OK – I haven’t seen him yet.
“We want to win every game we play, we go for three points, we didn’t get three. We are disappointed but we have to dust ourselves down.”
