Manchester United missed the opportunity to climb to third place in the provisional Premier League standings after conceding a late equalizer and finishing 2-2 with Southampton at Old Trafford. The Saints took the lead with a goal by Stuart Armstrong (12 `), but Marcus Rashford (20 `) and Anthony Martial (23 `) made a complete turnaround in less than three minutes. In the 96th minute, Michael Obafemi scored the equalizer, which left the `red devils` in fifth place with the same number of points as Leicester and one less than Chelsea. Otherwise, the great series of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer`s team continues without a loss. The team is undefeated in 18 consecutive matches. For the first time since January / February 1993, Manchester United came out with an unchanged starting lineup in the fifth consecutive match predictions by partner football tips in the Premier League. Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes once again led the game in the midfield, and Marcus Rashford, Atnoni Marcial and Mason Greenwood formed the speed attack trio of the hosts.
There were no changes in Southampton`s squad either, and Ralph Hazenhuttle bet on the same eleven for the third time in a row.
Both teams played a very intriguing and dynamic first half. Southampton started quite well at Old Trafford, with the Saints creating problems for United with their high press. In the tenth minute, the hosts could take the lead when Martial came face to face with McCarthy, but failed to overcome it. A minute later, the Southampton press paid off. Danny Ings pressed Pogba, who lost the ball in front of the Red Devils` penalty area. The attack continued to the left to Redmond, who centered well to Armstrong. The latter overcame De Gea with his second touch.
However, Manchester United responded very quickly. In the 16th minute, Rashford`s goal was correctly canceled due to an ambush, but four minutes later the English national team equalized. Paul Pogba retaliated in part for his mistake after finding Martial, who held very well, then assisted Rashford, who shot sharply into the far corner - 1:1.
Less than three minutes later, the reversal was a fact. The attack again went through Pogba, who continued to his partner in the midfield Bruno Fernandes. The Portuguese saw Martial on the left. The Frenchman dealt easily with Walker-Peters and shot McCarthy to a nearby crossbar.
At the very end of the first half, Romeu entered Greenwood`s legs quite dangerously. However, the Southampton midfielder escaped without any card in this situation.
At the beginning of the second half the guests had claims for a penalty. Ings` shot was blocked by Maguire in the penalty area, but then Armstrong placed in front of the body of the central defender and fell after being pushed in the back. The referee signaled that the game should continue.
In the 55th minute, Rashford made a very nice shot from about 25 meters, after which the ball flew near the right crossbar of McCarthy`s goal.
Southampton responded with a shot from Ward-Praus on the right, but Danny Ings and Che Adams failed to intercept. Solskjaer decided to replace Pogba with Fred, and Shane Long entered a game for the `saints` in place of Adams.
