One would fancy goals in this match given how both teams have had defensive weaknesses. Arsenal have been playing beautiful football and it was the general expectation that a goal would come from team play. David de Gea, considered one of the best goalkeepers in the world, conceded from a poor attempt at a save

Mustafi's downward header bounced off the ground and into his path. This was to be a routine save but he somehow fumbled the ball. Herrera's clearance proved futile as the goal line technology showed the ball had already crossed the line.

Lacazette tumbled with two United defenders as the ball somehow found its way into the net after deceiving de Gea. 15 seconds after the restart, bizarre defending in the Arsenal box allowed Jesse Lingard to creep in and score an instant equaliser. It the end, it was a fair result with United lucky not to concede further.
