Arsenal were held to a 2-2 draw against Manchester United in an entertaining clash in the English Premier League, but the Gunner’s midfielder Mohamed Elneny watched from the bench.

In the first half, Arsenal opened the scoring in the 26th minute from a Mustafi header. Arsenal were dominating the match and it was coming.

Just four minutes later, Anthony Martial equalized for Manchester United after a pass from Ander Herrera wasn’t cleared by any defender.

Later in the first half, Arsenal were forced into a substitution as Holding had to be stretchered off with a potential knee injury.

In the second half, Emery was forced into another substitution as Ramsey had to be taken off at halftime and was replaced by Mkhitaryan.

In the 68th minute, Lacazette scored for Arsenal to make it 2-1 from a Mkhitaryan assist.  Replays showed that the goal may be an own goal by Rojo as Lacazette shot Rojo’s leg which shot the ball into the net.

From the kickoff, Manchester United equalized once again through Lingard after a big defensive mistake by Kolasinac. Lingard was able to slot the ball home easily.

For the rest of the half, Arsenal came close many times but they couldn’t find the back of the net again and the match ended as a draw.

Arsenal’s next match will be against Ramadan Sobhi’s Huddersfield Town in the Premier League on 8/12. Arsenal currently sit in the fifth position in the table.
