In a game that Paul Pogba shines and the team controlling 72% of the possession, Manchester United that have won just 1 of their last 7 Premier League games failed to score in front of the 75,325 Old Trafford fans that were desperately looking for a win.
The Man of the match Tom Heaton
was to good to be beaten as Burnley ran home with a point from Old Trafford.
Jose
Mourinho was force to watch the second half of the game from the stand as he
was sent off by the referee Mark Clattenburg for questioning his decision not
to award what appeared to be a penalty when Matteo Darmian was brought down in
the box just before half time.
Later in the game, United were reduced to 10 men
as Herrera was sent off
following his second yellow card.
It was an inspiring afternoon for the Burnley goalkeeper as
he stopped the sustained pressure from Mata, Pogba, and Ibahimovic with Rooney firing over in a close range from a stoppage time
free-kick.
It might have
been a disappointing result for United but the team chemistry was something
that could be built on.
