Bournemouth had to settle for a point against Manchester United after a controversial penalty decision allowed the lacklustre visitors to draw level in the second half.

Dominic Solanke’s fizzing effort gave the Cherries the lead before Bruno Fernandes turned a loose ball into the back of the net from close range. The hosts took advantage of some slack defending as Justin Kluivert weaved into the box and slotted the ball past Andre Onana to restore the lead.

With United bereft of creativity and pass bounced up to strike Adam Smith on the arm inside his own box with referee Tony Harrington pointing to the spot and VAR deciding not to overturn. Fernandes scored the penalty and salvaged a draw for Erik ten Hag’s men.

66 mins: Casemiro swings in a cross to Hojlund but it’s just too far above him.

63 mins: PENALTY! And United are offered a way back into it!

This seems very harsh. Mainoo lines up a shot and it’s blocked by Christie. It bounces up and brushes the arm of Smith, and the referee gives it!

54 mins: Smith dispossesses Rashford on halfway and Bournemouth have a chance to attack, but Ouattara can’t capitalise. Kluivert, whose doing a decent impression of his dad today, skips past two challenges as he surges into the box, but Wan-Bissaka blocks his shot.
