Southampton 2-2 Manchester United: Red Devils comeback falls short in yet another disappointing display
Manchester United came back from two goals down to salvage a draw at Southampton despite another lacklustre display from Jose Mourinho’s men.A makeshift United defence crumbled to a two-goal deficit after excellent strikes from Stuart Armstrong and Cedric.3

Rashford dragged United back into the game

But Romelu Lukaku and Ander Herrera both benefited from smart work by Marcus Rashford to draw things level before half-time.The Red Devils could only muster up one shot on target in the second-half as they stumbled to yet another disappointing result. Their winless run in the Premier League stretches to three, while Saints stay in the relegation zone despite an important point.Lukaku wasted a decent early opening, blasting straight at the onrushing Alex McCarthy after the Saints goalkeeper had swiped and missed with an attempted clearance.3

Mourinho’s men underwhelmed yet again

Rashford’s smart backheel not only kept the ball in play but also teed up Lukaku – but the Belgium striker could not slot home.Saints took that reprieve and sprung to life, with Armstrong rifling the opener courtesy of a neat tee-up from full-debutant Michael Obafemi.Rashford then helped set up Saints’ second, his scything challenge on Lemina drawing both a yellow card and a free-kick well in range of United’s goal.Portugal defender Cedric duly stepped up and whipped a fine effort past a stunned David De Gea, to double the home lead.Rashford set about securing recompense, and laying on two goals in six minutes went some way to footing the bill.3

McTominay was played out of position in a back three

The England forward’s smart centre gave Lukaku the chance to hammer home – and the United target man did exactly that.And in next to no time Rashford conjured another byline cutback to invite Herrera into a fine backheel finish.Just like that, United were level, and walking into the changing rooms wondering how they had ever slipped behind – and no doubt to receive some stern words from boss Mourinho.United failed to up the ante after the interval, and Scott McTominay was fortunate to escape a heavy challenge on Obafemi without conceding a penalty. United’s inability to dominate despite hauling themselves back into the contest was laid bare by the visitors setting up two banks of four time and again throughout the second half.That Saints pressed without sufficient accuracy or incision matters not, for any United side, and any Mourinho team, ought to swat aside the likes of the struggling Saints.Armstrong nodded just wide from Redmond’s drilled corner, and that after Paul Pogba capped another quizzically inconsistent showing by passing straight to the hosts.Though United pressed again at the end, Saints held out, leaving neither side happy and both pondering troublesome form.
