In-form Ibrahimovic rescues draw for United
Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored a dramatic equaliser with six minutes remaining as Manchester United grabbed a 1-1 Premier League draw at home to Liverpool.
Paul Pogba had looked like being the villain of the piece for United, but Ibrahimovic's header – his 10th goal in 10 top-flight games – prevented a damaging defeat.
James Milner's 27th-minute penalty and sixth league goal of the season – awarded after a handball from Pogba – had looked like it would prove to be the winner at Old Trafford.
Pogba missed a brilliant opportunity to put United ahead prior to Milner's strike, while Simon Mignolet had made key saves from Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the first half, but had barely been troubled prior to the veteran Swede's intervention.
United's nine-match winning streak in all competitions is now over, but it still sits within five points of second place after salvaging a draw.
Liverpool, meanwhile, is winless in four matches, trailing league-leader Chelsea by seven having dropped from second to third over the course of the weekend.
