Manchester United visited Brentford for the 30th round match of the English Premier League.

It's worth noting that in the first half, the hosts dominated significantly and could have taken the lead. Ivan Toney alone missed several promising opportunities to score. In one of the episodes, the Brentford talisman was denied by Andre Onana, hitting the visitors' goalpost.

The second half saw a similar pattern: the hosts threatened Onana's goal more often, but the guests also created a few chances. For Brentford, Toney, Yoane Wissa, and Yegor Yarmolyuk had opportunities, while for the Red Devils, Rasmus Hojbjerg's dangerous strike forced a save from Mark Flekken.

However, none of the mentioned players managed to break the deadlock. The most exciting moments came in stoppage time.

Mason Mount put the visitors ahead in the 97th minute. It seemed like this goal would secure three points for the Mancunians. But Brentford managed to salvage a draw. In the 99th minute, Ajer leveled the score for the Bees from Toney's assist.

Both teams earned a point. Manchester United now trails the Champions League qualification zone by 11 points.
