Porro and Palhinha suffer late blow, ex-Sporting duo held at home | OneFootball

Manchester United, under Ruben Amorim – who saw Cristiano Ronaldo comment on the club's current situation – secured a 2-2 draw thanks to a Matthijs de Ligt header in stoppage time, in an exciting Premier League match that featured four goals in total. Pedro Porro and João Palhinha, who were both in Thomas Frank's starting eleven, came close to defeating the Old Trafford side.

At the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring for United (32'). The Cameroonian forward thus maintained his good form. After a first half with few chances, there was a flurry of goals after the hour mark. Mathys Tel came off the bench to restore parity in the match in the 84th minute.

Soon after, Benjamin Sesko, a forward who came off the bench in the second half, left the field with complaints. With no more substitutions left, Ruben Amorim was forced to play with one man down until the end. The comeback would come in stoppage time.

Following a corner, the ball fell to Odobert, who shot from the edge of the area with a curling effort. Richarlison, already inside the box, deflected it to make it 2-1 (90+1'). Before the end, there was still another goal. Bruno Fernandes set up De Ligt to head home the equalizer (90+6').

With this result, the team led by the former Sporting coach draws for the second consecutive game and is now seventh in the table with 18 points. Tottenham, meanwhile, sits in third place, also with 18 points.
