Man Utd fight-back for Burnley draw as Pogba admits 'it's disappointing'

Manchester United scored twice in five minutes to rescue a point at home to Burnley on Tuesday night.

United were facing their first defeat under caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer until Paul Pogba scored from the penalty spot in the 87th minute and Victor Lindelof scrambled in a 92nd-minute equaliser.

Burnley had defended resolutely until conceding twice late on and were in front thanks to second-half goals from Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood.

Pogba remarked afterwards: "We have to learn from our mistakes and next time start the game differently.

"Like the manager said, you have to start strong and be aggressive because that's what they were in the first half. We played like we were winning 1-0 or 2-0, that's where we went wrong.

"The comeback was positive but the result was disappointing.

"The reaction was good, we didn't lose, but we dropped two points we could have won."
