Premier League: Oliver McBurnie's Late Goal Denies Manchester United Victory Against Sheffield United


Oliver McBurnie's wrecked Manchester United's hope of winning with a late goal that levels scoring at 3-3 against Sheffield United in a game that should have been Red Devils'.

By the way, United rallied from two goals down to take the lead only to lose it on the brink of full time to Sheffield. The equalizer was challenged for a handball but the referee upheld the goal after a VAR review.

United had themselves punished for poor defensive play and it resulted in two goals scored by John Fleck and Lys Mousset but they made a stunning comeback to snatch the lead with Brandon Williams, Mason Greenwood, and Marcus Rashford scoring three goals in seven minutes.

Marcus Rashford scores the third goal for tenth in all competitions this season 

"I feared the worst at 2-0," said Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. "I'm more pleased by the way come back at two-nil down. That's one of the biggest things to know what they are capable of but for the first 65 minutes they were not good enough."

Blades dominated the first hour of play and were the first newly promoted team to score three goals against United since 2014 in a 5-4 defeat to Leicester City.

On the average of the age of the goalscorers, Solskjaer believed the boys did really well but it was a well-deserved draw game for Sheffield because United did not "perform well to win" the game.
