Everton vs Man United: Ex-Arsenal star shocks Red Devils with late stunner to steal point for Toffees

Manchester United were seconds from all three points against Everton before ex-Arsenal man Ainsley Maitland-Niles struck deep in added time to secure a 2-2 draw for the Tofees at home.

The Red Devils twice took the lead through Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko, but were pegged back on each occasion by Tyrick George and then Maitland-Niles.

Ainsley Maitland-Niles marked his Everton debut with a spectacular 96th-minute equaliser as the Toffees fought back to draw 2-2 with Manchester United, extending their unbeaten start to four matches.

United dominated the opening stages and created several chances, with Bruno Fernandes hitting the crossbar and Matheus Cunha wasting a promising opportunity from Marcus Rashford’s cutback. Everton struggled badly in the first half, registering no shots on target before Thierno Barry came close with a late header.

The hosts were punished just 61 seconds after half-time when Bryan Mbeumo produced a moment of individual brilliance, cutting inside from the right before curling a superb 18-yard effort into the bottom corner.

Everton responded with greater attacking intent, but United survived several scares, including a crucial James Tarkowski challenge to deny Cunha a certain goal. Tyrique George eventually levelled seven minutes from time with a powerful finish from a tight angle.

United appeared to have snatched victory in the 88th minute when substitute Benjamin Šeško headed home Luke Shaw’s cross, despite Jordan Pickford getting a hand to the effort.

However, Everton refused to surrender. With virtually the final kick of the match, Maitland-Niles curled a stunning 25-yard strike into the net to rescue a dramatic draw and preserve Everton’s unbeaten record.
