Man Utd 1-1 Burnley: Zeki Amdouni scores late penalty in draw
Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana value his aspect victory as Zeki Amdouni transformed a late penalty to seize a priceless level for relegation-threatened Burnley within the Premier League at Previous Trafford.
Regardless of one other unconvincing show from Erik ten Hag’s males, they did look set for victory because of Antony’s well-taken 79th-minute effort.
However, simply as he did on the opening day in opposition to Wolves, Onana recklessly charged from his line in an try and punch the ball clear however hit an opposition participant as an alternative.
Though referee John Brooks missed the incident in actual time, not like in opposition to Wolves the video assistant referee, Peter Bankes, stepped in. Substitute Amdouni recovered from being on the fallacious finish of Onana’s fist to ship the keeper the fallacious approach.
The outcome moved Burnley to inside two factors of fourth-bottom Nottingham Forest, whom they play at Turf Moor on the ultimate day of the season.
“We have earned the best to imagine and hope,” Burnley supervisor Vincent Kompany informed Match of the Day.
Kompany mentioned “the duty is to do one thing particular” in opposition to Newcastle subsequent Saturday, earlier than Burnley journey to Tottenham the next week.
“We’ve a possibility on that at some point in opposition to Forest,” he mentioned.
United, in the meantime, are nonetheless to win successive league video games since February and, with new technical director Jason Wilcox watching on, boos from the house followers greeted the ultimate whistle, though they weren’t as loud as those triggered by Ten Hag’s choice to take off teenage midfielder Kobbie Mainoo after 65 minutes.
A uncommon good day for Antony
This outcome – and the general efficiency – was not a strong argument within the debate raging exterior Previous Trafford about Ten Hag’s future.
That dialog consists of the Dutchman’s switch dealings.
It was the Ten Hag who pushed for Antony within the final days of the 2022 summer season switch window.
United finally paid Ajax £82m for the 24-year-old, making him the second costliest participant within the membership’s historical past behind Paul Pogba. The return of 5 league targets and three assists doesn’t replicate effectively on anybody who sanctioned the transfer.
There was a sense in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s time that the winger was value pursuing however provided that the switch payment was round £30m.
Ten Hag defended Antony for his cupped-ears celebration within the FA Cup semi-final win in opposition to Coventry, claiming his participant had been provoked. However, given it was 3-0 when he made his introduction, Antony might need been smart to maintain his counsel.
He had loads of probabilities to extend his tally on this recreation.
An early shot from the sting of the realm went straight to Arijanet Muric. One other beat the Burnley keeper and the far submit. In between that and one other long-range effort, Antony laid a go of to Aaron Wan-Bissaka together with his shoulder as he determined that was probably the most environment friendly approach of cope with a 70-yard go dropping into his path.
Underneath the circumstances, you need to admire that self-belief.
However, evaluation of the participant needs to be reserved for tangible output. After Alejandro Garnacho’s forceful run had taken him to the goal-line, from six yards, Antony ought to have executed greater than prod the ball to Muric.
His purpose was worthy of optimistic evaluation, although. He reacted quickest to Sander Berge’s errant go and, though the Burnley man appeared like he was shoving Antony over in his desperation to make amends, the Brazilian stored his stability lengthy sufficient to seek out the web.
Onana pays the value
It was Onana’s assault on Wolves striker Sasa Kalajdzic that sparked the scores of controversial VAR incidents this season.
Referees’ chief Howard Webb can a minimum of be grateful that, on the identical finish of the identical floor, this time the expertise labored because it ought to.
Burnley supervisor Vincent Kompany will even be blissful about it.
His aspect have now misplaced solely as soon as in eight video games. The galling factor for the Lancashire outfit should be that there have been far too many attracts in that run and the one recreation they misplaced was their most vital, at Everton.
Burnley may have gotten extra from this one. Onana denied Lyle Foster with an excellent response save within the first half and the Burnley striker was denied once more by the United keeper when he ran previous Harry Maguire and straight on the house purpose.
Given they haven’t stored a clear sheet in 17 video games now, Kompany’s aspect knew a goalless draw was unlikely. The actual fact that they had the spirit to get well says so much concerning the positivity inside the Clarets camp.
But, nonetheless they handle it, they might want to depend on the failings of Forest and Luton over the subsequent three weeks to get them to that final-day encounter with Nuno Espirito Santo’s males with an opportunity of staying up.
