It was an interesting game of football as Manchester United came from behind to secure a 2-1 draw against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.

Bournemouth started the game well and got the lead when Callum Wilson scored from close range during the 11th minute of the game. Bournemouth could have scored more goals in the opening 30th minutes of the game but they failed to take their chances and Anthony Martial made them pay for their missed opportunities by making the scoreline level in the 35th minute.

There were doubts about Marcus Rashford's form before the game but the Englishmen performed brilliantly after coming on for his team in the 56th minute and scored only his second goal of the season to complete his team's remarkable comeback in the final minutes of the game.

Manchester United enjoyed 52% of possession during the game and had eight shots on target as compared to Bournemouth's seven. The Red Devils started the season poorly and there are question marks on Jose Mourinho's future at the club. However, this victory certainly earned him a bit more time at the Old Trafford and his team can now build on this win.

They finished second last season, but are on the seventh place in the Premier League table this season, six points behind the leaders Manchester City. They will play Juventus in the Champions League during the midweek and then have games against Manchester City and Crystal Palace in the league.

On the other hand, Bournemouth are exceeding all expectations this season and are currently sixth on the Premier League table. They will make a trip to Newcastle next weekend before hosting Arsenal at the Vitality Stadium.
