Man Utd 1 Burnley 1: Zeki Amdouni scores last-gasp penalty to boost Premier League survival hopes in gripping finale


ANTONY accepted Burnley’s gift to scrape past the relegation-threatened side – only for Andre Onana to give it straight back.

Referee John Brooks checked the VAR monitor and pointed to the spot.

And Amdouni stepped up to slot the spot-kick in, sending Onana the wrong way.

Earlier on, frustrations were beginning to build at Old Trafford.

But a shocking pass across the defensive line allowed Antony to race clear.

And the Brazilian, losing his balance, showed composure to guide the ball into the bottom corner with 11 minutes to go.

However, his hard work was undone by an erratic piece of goalkeeping from his team-mate.
