Man Utd lose ground on rivals after Brentford's last-gasp equaliser


31-03-2024 11:25 AM

Ammon News - Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw at lowly Brentford after Kristoffer Ajer's 99th-minute equaliser in their Premier League clash on Saturday, denting the visitors' hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League.

Substitute Mason Mount thought he had given United an undeserved and dramatic victory when he slotted home in the 96th minute after Brentford had dominated the game.

But Ajer smashed home Ivan Toney's cut-back from close range three minutes later to deny United the win and leave them in sixth spot, 11 points off fourth-placed Aston Villa.

They are also eight points off Tottenham Hotspur in fifth, a spot which could be enough for Champions League football next season. Villa have played a game more than Spurs and United.
