Manchester United Held to a Frustrating Draw by Burnley
Late Penalty Denies United Victory
Manchester, England – April 27, 2024
Manchester United were left to rue a missed opportunity on Saturday as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley at Old Trafford. The Red Devils took the lead through Bruno Fernandes in the first half, but a late penalty from Zeki Amdouni earned a point for the Clarets.
Andre Onana was the hero for Burnley, making several key saves to deny United. The Cameroonian goalkeeper was particularly impressive in the second half, keeping out close-range efforts from Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood.
United's frustration was evident as the game progressed. Fernandes, who was lively in the first half, faded after the break. Cristiano Ronaldo was also anonymous, failing to register a single shot on target.
Burnley, meanwhile, grew in confidence as the game wore on. Amdouni was a constant threat down the left wing, and his goal was just reward for his efforts. The Tunisia international showed great composure to convert from the spot, after he was brought down by Luke Shaw.
The draw leaves United in sixth place in the Premier League table, six points behind fourth-placed Arsenal. Burnley, meanwhile, move up to 17th place, three points clear of the relegation zone.
United will be looking to bounce back from this disappointment when they travel to Arsenal next weekend. Burnley, meanwhile, will host Brighton & Hove Albion in their next match.
