Manchester United were denied a stunning win against Sheffield United as Oli McBurnie's 90th-minute goal sealed a 3-3 draw in a Premier League classic at Bramall Lane on Sunday.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side were largely wretched against Chris Wilder's men and found themselves 2-0 down after 52 minutes courtesy of goals from John Fleck and Lys Mousset.
They produced a stirring fightback, though, with goals from Brandon Williams, Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford in the space of seven minutes appearing to set them up for a scarcely deserved three points.
However, substitute McBurnie had other ideas and his last-minute strike was given after a length VAR review for a potential handball.

11' De Gea makes brilliant double-save
Seconds after getting down well to push away Lundstram's volley, De Gea is quickly back to his feet to keep out McGoldrick's header.
19' GOAL! Sheffield United 1-0 Man Utd (Fleck)
Mousset chases a long ball and outmuscles Jones before pulling the ball back for Lundstram, whose first-time shot is saved by De Gea. However, Fleck is following up to finish off.
24' McGoldrick's shot saved by De Gea
The Blades have their tails up at the moment. McGoldrick pounces on sloppy possession by the visitors before cutting inside and firing a shot straight at De Gea.
29' NICE TRY! Martial's shot saved
At the other end, the visitors get their first shot on goal as Martial tries his luck from a tight angle. There is plenty of venom in the Frenchman's shot, but it is easily gathered by Moore.
52' GOAL! Sheffield United 2-0 Man Utd (Mousset)
The hosts regain possession inside their own half before launching a quickfire counter. Fleck shows terrific awareness to pick out Mousset, who advances with the ball before sending a precise 20-yard shot into the bottom-right corner.
72' GOAL! Sheffield United 2-1 Man Utd (Brandon Williams)
A lifeline for the visitors as James' cross is only headed away as far as Williams, who fires home on the half-volley.
77' GOAL! Sheffield United 2-2 Man Utd (Greenwood)
The substitute arrives in the six-yard box to turn home Rashford's cross and square things up at Bramall Lane.
79' GOAL! Sheffield United 2-3 Man Utd (Rashford)
The Red Devils have turned things around! James gets in behind after playing a neat one-two with Martial. He then has the presence of mind to pick out Rashford, who turns home what could be the winner.
90' GOAL! Sheffield United 3-3 Man Utd (McBurnie)
The substitute fires home a dramatic equaliser as he controls Robinson's cross before beating De Gea. But wait, VAR is coming into play. Replays show the striker controlled the ball with his shoulder as opposed to his arm before volleying home and the goal stands!
