Manchester United scored twice in stoppage time to draw 4-4 with Aston Villa at Old Trafford on Sunday. Joshua Zirkzee pulled one back in the 90+2nd minute and Patrick Dorgu equalised in the 90+6th, after Villa had led 4-2 since Leon Goretzka's goal in the 53rd minute.

Villa were ahead inside four minutes, Alysson scoring in the first and Nicolas Jackson doubling the lead in the fourth. Bruno Fernandes reduced the deficit from the penalty spot in the 16th minute and Youri Tielemans levelled before half-time. John McGinn had restored Villa's lead with a penalty in the 48th minute.

BBC Sport reports that Villa manager Unai Emery was frustrated that his side let two-goal leads slip twice. Sky Sports reports that the point still leaves United in the relegation zone.

United are 18th with eight points from 10 games, while Villa are 10th with 13. Mundo Deportivo reports that the club's board will soon decide on Michael Carrick's future.
