Everton 2-2 Man Utd: Bruno and Ugarte salvage point to save Red Devils from loss

EVERTON were denied a late penalty as Manchester United salvaged an unlikely draw.

Match Report

The Red Devils were completely outplayed in the first half and were deservedly 2-0 down at the break.

Some slapstick defending resulted in Beto firing in the opener, which had to be checked for several minutes by VAR.

Abdoulaye Doucoure doubled the hosts' lead after heading in a rebound from a Jack Harrison effort, and Everton threatened to add more.

Shortly after half-time Doucoure had an effort well saved by Andre Onana, as United appeared to be sleepwalking to full-time.

But out of nowhere they were back in the match after Bruno Fernandes fired in a free-kick, wrongfooting Jordan Pickford.

United then levelled after another Fernandes free-kick bounced out to Manuel Ugarate, who took a touch on the edge of the box before firing the ball brilliantly into the bottom corner.

But Amorim's side almost threw away a point after referee Andy Madley pointed to the spot after Ashley Young went down in the area.

The ref was advised to review the incident on the VAR monitor and he judged Young to have gone to ground too easily, so overturned his decision.
