United and comebacks often went hand in hand and more so in the first half of this campaign. Solskjaer's United has scored first in every game, barring today, in which they played and won all of them. However, the fans wanted to witness how the team would react once they concede first in a game under the new manager.

After a goalless first half, Burnley opened the scoring against the run of the play through Barnes after a mistake by Pereira in the midfield. Woods doubled the lead with few minutes left on the clock leaving United to pull off a memorable comeback in the last ten minutes of the match.

Pogba scored from the spot to give United fans a lifeline and then Lindelof made it 2-2 in injury time. However, time was against the home side as they couldn't create any more chance to score the winner. In the battle for the top four, it was a massive two points dropped, but Ole would take the fight back as a positive from the match.
