Manchester United vs Burnley LIVE: Premier League result and reaction after Zeki Amdouni equaliser
Manchester United take on local rivals and relegation-threatened Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday.
In their last outing, Erik Ten Hag’s side claimed all three points, but it was a tumultous game against rock-bottom Sheffield United and the Red Devils needed to come from behind twice to claim the 4-2 win.
After that match Manchester United had scored at least two and conceded at least two in their last five matches in all competitions.
Manchester United went into the match battling against Tottenham and Newcastle for the final European places, with too sizeable a gap between themselves and Aston Villa to have a reasonable chance of finishing in the Champions League places.

17:09
Fittingly, the points are shared at Old Trafford where Manchester United and Burnley played out a wide-open 1-1 draw, having somehow gone goalless for nearly 80 minutes. Both sides failed to make the most of their chances throughout a game in which the away side had more of the ball, while Onana made some superb saves to keep the scoreline blank before Antony fired home United's opener with a decisive solo strike. The Clarets soon struck back, though, as Onana erred and conceded a penalty, which Amdouni coolly converted. There were no fewer than 43 shots at goal, with the hosts xG finishing at 1.92 to Burnley's 1.87, and that reflects the nature of an encounter in which defending took a back seat. While Manchester United will take on Crystal Palace next time out, their visitors must host Newcastle United, having at least temporarily moved within two points of 17th-placed Nottingham Forest, who will play title favourites Manchester City on Sunday. That's all from today's live coverage, so thank you for joining us and goodbye!

FULL-TIME: MANCHESTER UNITED 1-1 BURNLEY
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:59
Amad strikes Bruno Fernandes with an attempt from the edge of the box, before Antony prods a tame follow-up straight at Muric, and that wraps up a frantic finale to the second half.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:58
SAVE! Onana partly redeems himself by making a crucial stop at his near post! Odobert outsmarts Wan-Bissaka on the left, then lashes in a low shot, but the goalkeeper stands strong and blocks it away with his feet! Surely that's the last chance gone?
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:56
Neither side has given up on winning this game, and Amad fires a hopeful shot straight at Muric from outside the area.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:54
The officials indicate there will be at least six minutes of stoppage time played at the end of this half, as Vitinho escapes a strong penalty claim. The ball struck his arm in the area, but it seems that was not enough to award Man Utd a penalty-kick.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:52
GREAT BLOCK! O'Shea saves Burnley, as Casemiro squares the ball back for McTominay, who tries to squeeze it home from close range - but the Clarets defender steps in with a last-gasp block! Brilliant defending!
Manchester United vs Burnley

Substitution Scott Francis McTominay Mason Tony Mount

Yellow Card Maxime Esteve

16:50
PENALTY AWARDED! Burnley have a late chance to level it! The VAR quickly concludes that Onana clattered over an opponent inside the area, so United's first-half hero is penalised - that's a penalty for the Clarets!
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:48
PENALTY FOR BURNLEY? After a mix-up involving Casemiro and Onana, the ball breaks to Gudmundsson just outside the area, and the latter's volleyed strike is deflected wide by Dalot. However, before the corner is taken, the VAR halts play for a penalty check! Onana cleared everyone out inside his six-yard box, so it could be a spot-kick to Burnley!
Manchester United vs Burnley

Penalty Goal Mohamed Zeki Amdouni
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:44
Burnley have now conceded 20 goals in the last 15 minutes of the second half this season - only Sheffield United (27) and Crystal Palace (23) have shipped more in the Premier League. Should their relegation soon be confirmed, such a record will be partly to blame.

Substitution Christian Dannemann Eriksen Sofyan Amrabat

16:39
The live win-predictor calculator has Manchester United's chances of victory at 26 per cent now, with Burnley on just 12 per cent. Surely a game this wide open can't end in a goalless draw?

Goal Antony Matheus dos Santos

16:37
Garnacho topples over after O'Shea chases back and tracks him into the area, but there's no reaction from the referee despite Man Utd's penalty claims. There may have been some contact; however, the VAR has not intervened either.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:35
O'Shea streaks through the centre, carrying the ball all the way from his place at centre-back, but his throughball for Foster is ill-considered and the striker has to pull up quickly as he would be caught offside. United's centre remains soft.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:32
Assignon almost latches on to a throughball down the right but just runs out of space, as the ball trickles out of play for a Manchester United goal-kick. Burnley may have lacked a clinical touch so far, but they remain very much in this game.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:32
Substitution Jacob Bruun Larsen Jóhann Berg Guðmundsson
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:30
SAVE! After substitute Amad plays a low ball across the edge of the area, Garnacho lets fly with a powerful shot! It's thumped more or less straight at Muric, though, and Burnley's goalkeeper makes another sharp save!
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:29
Casemiro takes two attempts to steal the ball from Amdouni, neither being particularly clean, but he manages to snaffle the ball away from his opponent. In an unfamiliar position, the ex-Real Madrid man is acquitting himself well.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:26
Odobert tracks back to keep pace with Garnacho, who is again left in space and almost manages to get a shot off from just inside the Burnley box. Both sides' defending has left a lot to be desired - yet neither has been punished as yet.

16:25
Substitution Kobbie Boateng Mainoo Scott Francis McTominay
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:24
Substitution Rasmus Winther Højlund Amad Diallo Traoré
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:24
Ten Hag talks to McTominay on the touchline, and it seems United will make at least one change sooner rather than later. The Scotland international is their third-top scorer this season, so he will hope to make a decisive impact if introduced.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:24
More gaping space at the back leaves Burnley with a chance of finally opening the scoring, but Foster's layoff to Amdouni is delayed just too long, and the latter's shot is eventually blocked by a back-tracking Maguire. It remains wide open, and it's a mystery how the scoreline remains 0-0 after an hour.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:19
Bruno Fernandes loses possession deep inside his own half, offering Amdouni a chance to make an early impact on proceedings after arriving from the bench. The striker's shot lacks accuracy, though, and sails well over the crossbar.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:19
Yellow Card Joshua Jon Cullen
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:18
A frustrating shift for Fofana is brought to an early end, as he makes way for Amdouni up front. That's a new problem for United's new Maguire-Casemiro partnership to deal with.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:18
Wan-Bissaka pops up on the edge of the area, ready to meet a pull-back by Hojlund, but the full-back takes too long to pull the trigger and Burnley manage to clear their lines. Still, Man Utd are building some rhythm now, just as they did at the start of the first half.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:15
CLOSE! Garnacho is left in acres of space out wide, so he hares inside towards the area and engineers a strike with his right foot from 20 yards. However, his effort fails to curl inside the far post and instead flashes narrowly wide!
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:14
An appeal goes up from the Old Trafford faithful, as Casemiro chases the ball inside Burnley's box and seems to be upended, but the referee waves play on. On balance, that is probably the right decision, and the VAR clearly agrees.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:13
DOUBLE SAVE! Garnacho easily beats Assignon on the left and then pulls a low pass back for Antony, whose shot is smothered by Muric! Then, Burnley's goalkeeper races out to narrow the angle and deny the Brazilian again!
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:08
After United survive an early scare, when Fofana is caught just offside after Foster is allowed to streak through the middle unopposed, the play becomes disjointed.
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:05
Manchester United kick off, and we are back under way at Old Trafford!
Manchester United vs Burnley
16:02
Manchester United have lost just one of their last 16 Premier League games against Burnley, but they have already been beaten five times at Old Trafford in the Premier League this season and look vulnerable again. With a makeshift back four, perhaps that's no surprise, but as Burnley have not kept a clean sheet for 16 league games, the hosts may yet break through after the interval.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:56
Somehow, a wide-open first half of two halves ends goalless at Old Trafford, as Manchester United and Burnley head down the tunnel still on level terms. After United threatened to open the scoring on several occasions, with the influential Bruno Fernandes striking the goal-frame, before the Clarets bit back, and only some slack finishing and Onana's heroics have kept them from going in front. The visitors' xG stands at 0.84 to their hosts' 0.94, but given how momentum swung so far in their favour, Kompany's relegation battlers may feel they should have a lead to protect. While the live win-probability calculator rates their chances at just 18 per cent, Burnley can be heartened by the manner of their revival.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:50
HALF-TIME: MANCHESTER UNITED 0-0 BURNLEY
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:50
Bruun Larsen fires his free-kick straight at Onana - the hosts' star man in this first half - and that will be the final act before half-time.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:48
In the first of at least two minutes added for stoppages, Burnley are back on the ball in United's defensive third. Bruun Larsen draws a foul from Casemiro, so the Clarets can take one more crack at opening the scoring from a 25-yard free-kick.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:47
Having been caught by Antony in a midfield tackle, Vitinho stays down and will require treatment from the medics. Kompany takes the chance to discuss matters with Berge on the touchline, before Vitinho finally sits up and prepares to resume his role in defence.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:45
Yellow Card Antony Matheus dos Santos
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:43
First, Assignon blocks Garnacho's first strike at goal from 12 yards out, then the young winger fires a follow-up into the side-netting from a tight angle on the left. That came at the end of a nice move involving Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes, as United finally escape Burnley's siege.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:43
Yellow Card Wilson Serge Eric Odobert
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:41
SAVE! Onana saves his side once again. Berge slips through a lovely ball for Foster to take into his stride just outside the area, but the latter is denied by United's advancing goalkeeper as he tries to find the bottom-right corner! He really should have scored!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:40
Over the past 10 minutes, Burnley have had 67 per cent of the ball, as they've managed to turn this game on its head. They were firmly on the back foot for over nearly half an hour, but they now look likeliest to score before the break.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:38
SUPER SAVE! Incredible reflexes from Onana, who keeps Manchester United level! After a free-kick is partly cleared, Cullen feeds the ball back into the box, and Foster guides a header towards the far corner. However, Onana reacts to paw it away with remarkable agility!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:37
Wan-Bissaka mistimes a challenge on Fofana, who has strayed out onto the left flank, and Burnley will have a free-kick in a promising position. It seems that Bruun Larsen is lining up a cross into the area.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:34
After Dalot fails to properly clear his lines with a header, the ball drops to O'Shea, who fires his first-time shot straight over the crossbar. Burnley are bossing things now.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:33
Foster now fires over the top following another nice move from the Clarets - this is much better. Given recent results, Ten Hag will be concerned.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:31
Just outside his own area, Casemiro flattens Bruun Larsen, who is streaking through the middle at top speed, but the referee judges that the experienced Brazilian simply stood his ground. The game goes on.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:30
SHARP STOP! Onana leaps up to tip over a rasping 20-yard drive from Odobert! He really let fly and forced the goallkeeper to act quickly! That's another corner-kick for Burnley, who are now improving.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:28
Soon after Berge escapes a penalty claim at the other end, Vitinho reaches the left byline and cuts the ball back. Wan-Bissaka has to dive in to turn it behind for a corner.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:26
Fofana holds the play up in the final third, but the ball then strikes Cullen's arm and the Irish midfielder is penalised for handball. Since Fofana's early effort, United have had the last eight shots on goal, with the Clarets unable to pose any threat.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:23
After Garnacho's shot strikes Esteve in the area, the ball spins nicely towards Mainoo, who cracks an attempt wide of the target. The hosts are totally on top now, and they must surely capitalise soon.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:22
OFF THE POST! What a hit! Bruno Fernandes rattles the goal-frame with a lightning strike from a tight angle on the left! Eriksen and Hojlund combine before the ball breaks to United's skipper, who almost opens the scoring! Burnley breathe again!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:20
Burnley are struggling to play their way through the home side at the moment, as they search for a route through midfield. They continue to pass neatly but are not posing so much of a threat since their early salvo.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:18
Garnacho's cutback towards Hojlund is cut out in the centre, so United have another corner - this time, on the left. Berge clears the initial cross away, before Antony scuffs a low shot at Muric from 20 yards.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:17
The visitors are now on the back foot at Old Trafford, as United find their rhythm. The hosts are showing plenty of purpose, having halted Burnley's early momentum.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:15
Bruno Fernandes has already created three chances so far today, and Man Utd's 1-0 victory at Turf Moor earlier this season was owed to their captain scoring the winner. He will surely remain a central figure for the rest of this match - particularly as Burnley are giving him plenty of space.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:12
JUST WIDE! The chances continue to flow freely! Slack defending from Burnley allows Garnacho to roll a pass back to Eriksen on the edge of the area, but the latter's low drive just slips a few inches wide of the right-hand post!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:10
SAVE! After playing their first corner-kick short, United open up space for Antony to shoot at goal, following a perfectly weighted pass from Bruno Fernandes. However, he strikes it straight down the middle, allowing Muric to punch the ball away to safety!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:09
Stepping up from his centre-back role, Casemiro is left in space around 30 yards out. With few other clear options, he lashes a thunderous drive not far wide of the left-hand post via a deflection. That's a corner for the home side.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:08
Burnley are enjoying plenty of early possession, and a tidy move ends with Odobert being edged off the ball by Maguire deep inside Manchester United territory. Kompany will be heartened by his side's start.
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:05
MISS! Played in by a brilliant pass from United's captain and chief creator Bruno Fernandes, Garnacho arrives at the back post but slices his shot wide of the target! it's a typically wide-open start to proceedings at the Theatre of Dreams!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:03
SAVE! Allowed to escape his marker, Fofana breaks into the box and tests Onana with a low shot! It's straight at the Man Utd goalkeeper, who makes a straightforward stop!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:03
Burnley kick off, and we are under way in Manchester!
Manchester United vs Burnley
15:01
The players are out on the pitch at Old Trafford, and kick-off in this Premier League contest is now just moments away!
Manchester United vs Burnley
14:58
Having also taken three points from Sheffield United last time out, Burnley make just one change today: Fofana replaces Taylor in the visitors' starting XI. Aaron Ramsey, Jordan Beyer, Nathan Redmond, Ameen Al-Dakhil and Luca Koleosho are all ruled out by injury.
Manchester United vs Burnley
14:53
Manchester United's starting lineup is unchanged from their midweek defeat of Sheffield United, while Mount returns to the bench after missing two games through injury. The hosts' absence list remains long, though, as Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, Raphael Varane and Marcus Rashford are among a number of players still unavailable.
Manchester United vs Burnley

SUBS: James Trafford, Charlie Taylor, Johann Gudmundsson, Josh Brownhill, Jay Rodriguez, Benson Manuel, Hjalmar Ekdal, Zeki Amdouni, Mike Tresor.

14:38
Relegation-threatened Burnley make the short trip to Manchester in need of points to aid their quest for top-flight survival. Vincent Kompany's side have belatedly revived hopes of avoiding an immediate return to the Championship, and last week's 4-1 success over Sheffield United put the Clarets within three points of escaping the drop zone. They have now lost just one of their last seven league matches but have only ever beaten Man Utd twice in the Premier League.
Manchester United vs Burnley
14:38
After securing their first Premier League success since early March, having subsequently picked up just three points from four league matches, Manchester United are seeking back-to-back wins today. The Red Devils returned to sixth spot following a 4-2 defeat of rock-bottom Sheffield United on Wednesday, but they still need points to ensure European football for next season. In the most turbulent manner, Erik ten Hag's side also booked their place in the FA Cup final courtesy of a penalty-shootout victory over Coventry City last weekend and will meet Manchester City in next month's final.
