"Saturday's trip to the City Ground landed a year to the day since the Portuguese was named as Erik ten Hag's successor and came during the best spell of his topsy-turvy tenure. United arrived on a run of three straight wins and Diallo's late volley maintained their unbeaten record, securing a 2-2 draw as Sean Dyche's Forest were denied a comeback win."
"It was probably a fair result at the end of a helter-skelter encounter that the Red Devils went ahead in, with the City Ground faithful raging at the decision to award the corner from which Casemiro headed home. Nicolo Savona was adjudged to have taken the ball out of play and looked like he would have the last laugh, coolly scoring in the 50th minute just two minutes after Morgan Gibbs-White had equalised."
"United pushed for a leveller that Diallo eventually found in style, with the Ivory Coast international then denied a stoppage-time winner by Murillo's goal-line intervention. Amorim and Dyche shared a hug, and seemingly a joke, on the touchline before kick-off with Forest making the brighter start. Igor Jesus and Nikola Milenkovic had early half chances before Senne Lammens dealt with Dan Ndoye's rising drive, with Callum Hudson-Odoi flashing off target."
Manchester United drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest at the City Ground, maintaining an unbeaten run and marking one year since the Portuguese appointment. United arrived on a run of three straight wins and relied on Amad Diallo's late volley to secure the draw. Casemiro opened the scoring from a contentious corner that angered Forest supporters after Nicolo Savona appeared to keep the ball in play. Morgan Gibbs-White equalised before Savona restored Forest's lead on 50 minutes. United pressed for a leveller and Diallo struck stylishly, while Murillo produced a stoppage-time goal-line clearance to deny a winner.
