Manchester United's 2-2 draw with Newcastle United on Saturday evening was a nail-biting affair that saw both sides struggle to break through the other's defense. The Red Devils had the better chances early on, with Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford both firing shots wide of the target from set pieces.
The deadlock continued until the 79th minute, when Rashford made his presence felt with a stunning volley from outside the box that gave United the lead. However, Newcastle equalized just two minutes later, with their goalkeeper Ben Foster making a crucial save to keep the score level.
The game entered extra time, which saw both teams push for a winner. United were able to get closer to breaking the deadlock, but Newcastle held firm and eventually managed to hold out for the final result.
Despite the disappointing finish, Manchester United did manage to secure a point in what was a close contest. They will now look to bounce back with a win against Crystal Palace next weekend. On the other hand, Newcastle will need to find more consistency if they want to continue their upward momentum in the Premier League.
