  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nManchester United and Bournemouth shared the spoils in a thrilling 2-2 draw at the Vitality Stadium on Friday evening.\n\nUnited took the lead twice during the contest, with Bruno Fernandes dispatching a spot-kick and Hill inadvertently turning the ball into his own goal.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nThe Cherries found the net through Christie and Kroupi, with the latter converting from the penalty spot to secure a point for the hosts.\n\nThe match saw dramatic late twists as Michael Carrick's side were reduced to 10 men in the closing stages, leaving them to hold on for a draw despite leading on two separate occasions.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nTRENDING\n\nStories\n\nVideos\n\nYour Say\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nHarry Maguire's evening took a dramatic turn when he was dismissed for hauling down Evanilson as the Brazilian forward attempted to advance past him.\n\nThe centre-back was shown a straight red card for denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity, with the referee deeming him the last defender.\n\nMaguire's protests proved futile as the foul was clear and the punishment unavoidable.\n\nThe dismissal carried particular irony given that earlier in the day, England manager Thomas Tuchel had selected the defender for his upcoming international squad.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nBournemouth were awarded a penalty from the incident, which Kroupi subsequently converted to level the scores at 2-2.\n\nThe initial deadlock was first broken shortly after the hour mark when Cunha was pulled back by Jimenez inside the penalty area, with the Bournemouth defender receiving a booking for the infringement.\n\nFernandes stepped up and sent Petrovic the wrong way, rolling the ball into the bottom left corner to give United the advantage.\n\nThe hosts responded swiftly through Christie, who finished coolly from the edge of the box following a rapid counter-attack.\n\n### LATEST SPORT NEWS\n\n\n\n\n  * England’s World Cup kit released as controversial rainbow flag replaced with 'Happy and Gorious'\n  * Former Man United coach and Jose Mourinho's right-hand man dies at 67 as player tributes flood in\n  * Guardiola 'has one more year left in him' as Man City hero opens up ahead of Arsenal final\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nUnited fans were left furious after United's appeals for a second penalty were dismissed moments before the goal up the other end.\n\nTruffert had his hands on Diallo, but it was deemed not enough contact to force Diallo to go to the ground.\n\nUnited regained their lead when Fernandes delivered a cross that Senesi flicked on, with the ball deflecting off Hill and into the net.\n\nScott came agonisingly close to getting an equaliser for the hosts when his curling effort from outside the box crashed against the crossbar.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nHowever, it was Kroupi's penalty that split the points.\n\nThe referee added nine minutes of stoppage time, during which Bournemouth pressed for a winner with their numerical advantage.\n\nBoth the Cherries and United were unable to find a decisive third goal.\n\nThe contest mirrored the extraordinary encounter between these two sides earlier in the season, when they played out a remarkable 4-4 draw in the reverse fixture.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
