Giroud sucker-punch earns Arsenal draw at Man Utd | Bangkok Post: news


MANCHESTER (UNITED KINGDOM) - Substitute Olivier Giroud converted Arsenal's first effort on target in the 89th minute to rescue a smash-and-grab 1-1 draw for Arsene Wenger's side at Manchester United on Saturday. The result preserved Arsenal's six-point lead over sixth-place United, but left United falling even further behind the table leaders. Arsenal remain without a league win at Old Trafford in 10 years and Wenger has still not beaten Mourinho in the league in 12 attempts. Arsenal did not register a shot of note in the first half, but as United's momentum waned after half-time, Mourinho turned to his bench. Wenger introduced Giroud for Mohamed Elneny, which saw Sanchez, whose influence had dimmed, withdraw to the left flank, and Granit Xhaka also entered the fray.
