MANCHESTER UNITED supporters have conceded that the team “got away with one” following a foul in the lead-up to their equaliser against Aston Villa.

United salvaged a wild 4-4 draw against Unai Emery’s men in the dying moments, thanks to a last-minute header from Patrick Dorgu.

The goal occurred virtually as the final action of the match, with Red Devils keeper Senne Lammens pushed forward for a last-minute corner.

However, Villa fans criticized the decision to allow the goal, arguing that Lammens had hindered Villa’s goalkeeper Zion Suzuki during the build-up.

A clip depicts the Belgian rushing into the six-yard box before turning and backing into Suzuki as he attempted to punch the ball away.

Many United supporters, including YouTuber Mark Goldbridge, acknowledged their luck in having the goal stand.

A Villa fan shared the moment on X, stating: “Manchester United robbed Aston Villa here! Look at Lammens obstructing Suzuki, yet the goal still stands. Absolute robbery.”

Goldbridge replied: “I didn’t notice in real time, but that is literally VAR’s job, and it doesn’t get any better with each viewing.

“If that were against Lammens, we’d be furious, so I must admit we got away with one there.”

Another United supporter commented: “It is clearly a foul. This league is finished at this point.”

Another fan remarked: “Not once did Lammens even look at the ball. Villa was robbed.”

This goal was essential as it prevented United from suffering three consecutive losses in the Premier League and may extend Michael Carrick’s tenure amid criticism.

The contentious moment unfolded after Villa had taken a two-goal lead at Old Trafford, initially through Alysson and Nicolas Jackson’s early efforts.

United rallied to equalize at 2-2 thanks to Bruno Fernandes’ penalty and Youri Tielemans’ strike against his former club.

The match saw Villa regain a 4-2 lead after John McGinn’s penalty and Leon Goretzka’s goal.

But United had the final word, clinching a surprising point with goals from Joshua Zirkzee and Dorgu during stoppage time.

The dramatic ending clearly disturbed Villa manager Emery, who stormed down the tunnel before the conclusion of the match.

He later engaged in a tense interview regarding his early exit.

Emery explained: “They scored in minute 96, and there were six minutes added. I thought the match was finished.”

When prompted whether it was unfair to leave early, he replied: “Not unfair – they scored the goal, and I thought the match was over.”
