Manchester United‘s winning run came to an end on Saturday as they were held to a 1-1 Premier League draw by 10-man Aston Villa.
Louis
van Gaal’s side travelled to Birmingham on the back of six straight
wins and boasting an excellent record at Villa, who had lost to Midlands
rivals West Brom last time out.
However,
United were frustrated by a dogged showing from Paul Lambert’s men, who
held on for a point despite playing the final 25 minutes a man down
after Gabriel Agbonlahor was handed a straight red card.
Christian Benteke gave Villa the lead in the 18th minute as he curled home only his second goal of the campaign.
United
initially laboured in their quest to level matters, but pulled level in
the 53rd minute when Radamel Falcao headed in from close range.
