Manchester United's top-four ambitions are becoming increasingly bleak, despite having fought back from 2-0 down to draw with Southampton.

Match Events
Manchester United battled back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Southampton on Saturday in a match that will do little to ease the pressure on either Jose Mourinho or Mark Hughes.
The visitors were forced to line up with Scott McTominay and Nemanja Matic in defence due to injuries and found themselves two goals down after only 20 minutes at St Mary's Stadium.
Romelu Lukaku got a goal back, his first in the Premier League since September, and Ander Herrera secured a point, but a top-four finish is beginning to look a tall order for Mourinho's men.
Hughes, who has been facing calls for the sack himself, has now failed to steer Saints to a win in eight consecutive games in all competitions.
13' GOAL! Southampton 1-0 Man Utd (Armstrong)
GOAL!! It's Armstrong again! Having notched a brace at Fulham last weekend, the midfielder makes it three in two with an unerring low drive into the bottom-left corner from a tough angle. Southampton lead 1-0.
20' GOAL! Southampton 2-0 Man Utd (Soares)
GOAL!! Southampton are flying! Cedric curls a wonderful free-kick beyond the outstretched De Gea and into the top-left corner to double his side's advantage. United have work to do at 2-0 down.
33' GOAL! Southampton 2-1 Man Utd (Lukaku)
GOAL! Rashford wins the ball back in a good area, slips a pass through Stephens' legs and Lukaku buries the finish in a one-on-one. Southampton's lead is trimmed. 2-1.
39' GOAL! Southampton 2-2 Man Utd (Herrera)
GOAL!! United are back on level terms! Rashford turns Vestergaard, speeds to the byline and is allowed to drag a cut-back into the path of the onrushing Herrera, who produces a classy flicked finish at close range. All of a sudden it's 2-2 at St Mary's.
52' Fellaini heads the ball wide of the near post!
Fellaini flashes a header wide of the near post from skipper Young's right-sided free-kick.
