Manchester United travelled to relegation-threatened Burnley under the temporary leadership of former midfielder Darren Fletcher, two days after the sacking of Ruben Amorim.

Benjamin Sesko doubled his Premier League tally for the season, scoring twice as United came back from a goal down at Turf Moor.

But Jaidon Anthony finished smartly past the diving Senne Lammens as United drew 2-2 — they have won just once in their past six games.

“For me the fact we have drawn is a massive disappointment,” Fletcher told the BBC. “If you look at the context of the game, the chances we created, goalline clearances, a disallowed goal, 30 shots, lots of attacking play.

“We created more than enough to win the game so obviously it is disappointing when you only come away with a point.”

Harvey Barnes scored a dramatic winner in the 102nd minute as Newcastle, who had been trailing heading into stoppage time, beat Leeds 4-3 at St James’ Park.

The home fans chanted for former manager Kevin Keegan as the club posted the words “We’re all with you King Kev” on the big screen.

The club earlier shared a statement from Keegan’s family announcing the ex-England boss had been diagnosed with cancer.

Brazilian forward Igor Thiago scored his 15th and 16th Premier League goals of the season as Brentford beat Sunderland 3-0 to climb to fifth in the table.

Everton, reduced to nine men late in the match, held on to draw 1-1 with bottom club Wolves.
