their guests of honour. in june they spent 12 days trapped in a cave. now they are indeed in the director's box. a united side who on this ground rarely lose to everton. the early signs that suggested it would see something clinical from the home side. that foul also brought the spectacle of a paul pogba penalty kick. this is how the world cup winner takes them from the spot. goalkeepers like jordan pickford have learned how to read it. pogba this time was lucky. if that was fortuitous, his next intervention would prove more deliberate. the weight on this pass allowed anthony martial to do this. martial! the strikeer‘s future at united in the balance at the moment. but this is the kind of quality they can't afford to lose. pogba's influence on this score line wasn't over just yet. with this team 2—0 up, he tried another from the midfield.

gave away possession. in this small a giveaway penalty. gylfi sigurdson‘s conversion would make the ending less comfortable. though united threw away points late on last week, this time they had done enough. their season still has its flaws, but for the time being there is progress. joe lynksey, bbc news. when he gave the six minutes extra time, he was testing my heart because i am used to when i'm losing to have two three minutes and goodbye. and when i am winning... it's always difficult. but he motioned for the game, pickford in our box for the last corner. good football match, good football match. and obviously very happy with the point. i think we deserved a little more than the result we achieved. a balanced match. in some moments they create problems to us. that is normal. old trafford is always really difficult against us a strong side. very good quality. good quality of their players as well.
7:36 pm
a balanced, good match until the moment they scored the first goal penalty. crystal palace have ended arsenal's 11 match winning streak. and there were two penalties in this game too. palace scoring both. their first selhurst park goals this season. to earn a valuable 2—2 draw. james burford reports. for these of france, too long without it palace goal. wilfred haffar too long carried all the response ability. but right from the start, there was a desire about the home side. left and making some space. if only his shot had been inches to the right. so first‘s first would finally be clenched, a stadium sized sigh of relief, the product of a spot kick. seven hours without a goal, over. what we know about arsenal this season though, they score second—half goals and lots of them. he brings the visitors level in style. where that was a strike of sheer force, this was a stroke of fortune. no handball given against alex la cozette.

12 win in a world, looking unlikely at the moment and do the trickery provided one more chance from the spot. there is clear for all to see, he's the coolest man in the stadium. james burford, bbc news. i thought the attitude of the players and the way we came back and the way we fought to get in control of the game again on and on the front foot, i thought he gave us at least of what we deserved, and equaliser. so i am more dissatisfied, and we are happy with the teams and players performance before. i'm a little bit sad they didn't give us the three points. i think perhaps on another day our performance would have served it. i think we deserved to take this. for us it is a small disappointment because we wanted to win. but i think disappoint it is not bad. i'm not sure we continue
