Leicester FC spoilt a Christmas party that was due for Manchester United fans with an equalizer that ended their Saturday tie 2-2. With Jamie Vardy kick starting the bad news for Man U, Juan Mata scored twice to put the Red Devils in the lead before Harry Maguire equalized in the 94th-minute.
Man U remains second on the league table with 42 points and is looking likely to remain runners up for the title if things do not change in the other half of the season.
Pundits have criticized Jose Mourinho’s side for failing to take advantage of a red card given to Leicester’s Daniel Amartey. With 10-man Leicester held on in front of a home crowd.
Jose Mourinho who rarely takes blame for poor performances has blamed player error for the draw.
“We should have done better, but a few lapses cost us a win,” Mourinho said.
Manchester United is behind Manchester City which is set to clinch this season’s title.
