Another disappointing draw for United as they are held in a deadlock by lowly Hull. City scores four at West Ham as Stoke and Everton share the spoils.
Lowly Hull and mostly keeper Eldin Jakupovic with a series of fine saves kept Manchester United at bay to earn a point at Old Trafford to lift themselves from bottom of the table. The Tigers now are only 4 points away from salvation zone.
The Red Devils dominated throughout the 90′ but could not find a way to breach the defensive wall erected by Hull boss Marco Silva.
At the end United should consider themselves lucky when with four minutes to the final whistle, Hull‘s new signing on-loan Markovic hit the post and from the rebound Hernandez failed to put the ball behind de Gea.
Two points left behind and for sure Mourinho‘s boys need do better if they want to chase a place in next season Champions League and Josè Mourinho should be the first to admit it.
Meantime the other side of Manchester, City registered a big away win when they trashed West Ham at the London Stadium 4-0.
Belgian international De Bruyne opened the score after 17′, for Silva and Brazilian star Gabriel Jesus adding two more before half-time. Yaya Touré‘s penalty rounded off City‘s big win which put them on level points with Liverpool.
The last game played yesterday saw Stoke and Everton share the spoils in a 1-1 draw at the Bet365 Stadium.
Peter Crouch got his 100th Premiership goal to put the Potters in the lead, but Coleman deflected shot by Shawcross first ruled out for a Lukaku offside and then given, put the Toffees back on level.
