Rashford took too many touches of the ball inside the box, but the Danish striker was there to take command, smashing an unstoppable finish into the back of the net.However, Spurs bounced back soon, as Pedro Porro’s brilliant corner-kick found Richarlison in the middle of the area. The Brazilian rose to flick the ball smoothly into the far corner. 🚨GOAL | Manchester United 1-1 Tottenham | RicharlisonFollow our partner page @ocontextfutebol pic.twitter.com/Gmqf4v3sRC— VAR Tático (@vartatico) January 14, 2024 The pulsating clash was just getting started at that moment, as Manchester United were back in front before the break.

Both Erik ten Hag and Ange Postecoglou were eager to win it, but the players seemed a bit tired due to such a demanding battle, and some poor finishing choices proved that was just the case.Still, the home side was so close to winning it late, but Scott McTominay’s sitter would haunt them for a long time. The Scottish midfielder was left totally unmarked on the edge of the six-yard box, but his header went wide.ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 21Friday Burnley – Luton 1-1 (1-0)/Amdouni 36 – Morris 90+2/Saturday Chelsea – Fulham 1-0 (1-0)/Palmer 45+3 pen/Newcastle – Man.City 2-3 (2-1)/Isak 35, Gordon 37 – Silva 26, De Bruyne 74, Bobb 90+1/Sunday Everton – Aston Villa 0-0Manchester United – Tottenham 2-2 (2-1)/Hojlund 3, Rashford 40 – Richarlison 19, Porro 46/
