sport news PLAYER RATINGS: Antony enjoyed one of his better days after Wembley ear-cupping ... trends now

Manchester United's nightmare season took another turn for the worse after they were held to a 1-1 draw with Burnley, further piling the pressure on Erik ten Hag.

Winger Antony looked to have secured a crucial victory for United after scoring his first Premier League goal of the season but the hosts were pegged back late on.

Casemiro's loose ball had invited pressure in United's box and goalkeeper Andre Onana wildly swung out a fist before making contact with Zeki Amdouni's head.

Amdouni then dusted himself down to send Onana the wrong way from 12 yards, leaving Ten Hag's side just a point ahead of seventh-placed Newcastle.

MANCHESTER UNITED (4-2-3-1) 

ANDRE ONANA 5.5

Two vital saves denied Foster in the first half, as well as keeping out two efforts from Odobert, but undid his good work with a careless challenge on Amdouni which led to the Burnley substitute scoring from the spot. Onana got away with a similar one against Wolves at the start of the season so he could have no complaints.

AARON WAN-BISSAKA 6 

Defensively sound and even had the chance of a rare goal in the second half, but took too long to have a shot and the opportunity was gone.

CASEMIRO 5.5

Played as an emergency centre back again and looked comfortable until his silly header played United into trouble and led to them conceding a late penalty.

HARRY MAGUIRE 7

Made several crucial interceptions to break up Burnley attacks. Maguire has turned into Mr Reliable this season and this was another steady performance from the England man.

DIOGO DALOT 6

Didn't influence the game as much as he can, but once again didn't look out of place filling in at left-back.

KOBBIE MAINOO 5

There were boos from the Old Trafford crowd when he was replaced by McTominay in the second half – more for the decision to take off Mainoo than bring on McTominay. Not his best game and drilled a shot wide in the first half.

CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN 5.5

Just wide with an effort in the first half but angry with himself in the second after failing to play Antony through on goal from a quickly-taken free kick. Feels like he's playing catch-up after having a peripheral role this season.

ANTONY 7.5

Bright performance from the Brazilian right from the start, and it was rewarded with a goal when he seized on a defensive mistake to score in the
