Manchester United earned a point from their 1-1 draw with Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday, demonstrating their big-game mindset once more.

.

Ruben Amorim had stated before the game that his squad needed to survive against the Gunners due to the overwhelming amount of injuries, and at first it did appear that they would need to hang on tight in order to win.

However, following Bruno Fernandes’ spectacular first goal, the Red Devils dominated the second half and, given their opportunities, ought to have won all three points.

In retrospect, Rasmus Hojlund missed two golden opportunities toward the end of the game, therefore the head coach would have been better off substituting Chido Obi.

Fantastic work, MazraouiNoussair Mazraoui was one among the hosts’ top players; he may have played at right wingback in his best performance. In the second half, he was amazing, rushing forward whenever he wanted.

The coach will be pleased with the full-back’s effective combination with raiding forward Alejandro Garnacho and their occasional displays of mutual understanding.

The Moroccan, who had a great opportunity to seal the deal in the 54th minute but was brilliantly saved by David Raya, benefited from United’s counterattacking approach.

With 39 ball touches and 17 of 21 passes completed, the former Bayern Munich star finished the game with an 81 percent pass completion rate.

Outstanding moving forwardMost impressively, he made three crucial passes and set up the captain for a golden chance at the end, which the Arsenal goalie again denied.

He won one free-kick and had a perfect dribble completion rate. The 27-year-old won all of his aerial duels and three ground duels, and he was also a strong defensive player.

According to sofascore, Mazraoui also finished with three clearances and two interceptions, and the home team will believe they should have won the game that evening.

In what will be a season-defining match for the Red Devils, Amorim will want more of the same from all of his players on Thursday against Real Sociedad.
