Kristoffer Ajer equalises in stoppage time for Brentford to stop United’s efforts at a stop and grab

Brentford's Kristoffer Ajer celebrates scoring the equaliser for Brentford in their Premier League draw with Manchester United. Photograph: Zac Goodwin/PA Wiredid little to turn down the noise surrounding manager Erik Ten Hag’s future after an ultimately dramatic but largely uninspiring 1-1 draw at

Ten Hag had shrugged off speculation over his job this week before returning to the scene of his catastrophic second match in charge, when they conceded four goals in the opening 35 minutes.On the evidence of this underwhelming performance, they have hardly made any progress since that chastening afternoon in August 2022.

Toney threatened once more when he chased a long clearance and cut inside Victor Lindelof on the edge of the box, only to curl his shot over the top. United did at least start the second half with a sense of urgency and Fernandes beat the offside trap before squaring for Rasmus Hojlund, whose first-time effort was brilliantly clawed away by Flekken.

Toney had the ball in the net when he guided in a cross from substitute Bryan Mbeumo, but he was denied by a tight offside decision.Moments later Mbeumo volleyed against the crossbar and it really did not look like being Brentford’s day when, deep into nine minutes of stoppage time, Casemiro set up Mount to convert at the far post.
