Manchester United failed to pick up their first league win in a month as they somehow drew 0-0 with Sean Dyche’s Burnley at Old Trafford.
United dominated proceedings from start to finish and will wonder how they didn’t come away with three points from a deeply frustrating afternoon for Jose Mourinho.
Burnley goalkeeper Tom Heaton enjoyed the game of his life while Burnley centre-backs Ben Mee and Michael Keane also put in fabulous displays.

On another day United could __have won 4-0 but on a day when composure was needed, Mourinho was sent to the stands for the second half after remonstrating too much with referee Mark Clattenburg.
Midfielder Ander Herrera suffered a similar fate when he was shown a second yellow for his late tackle on Burnley midfielder Dean Marney.

The Red Devils hit the post, the bar and Heaton on numerous occasions, while they also had three penalty appeals turned away by Clattenburg as frustration and anger reached new levels at Old Trafford.
37 – Manchester United's total of 37 shots is their most in a Premier League game since 2003/04 (Opta records began). Frustration.

With a minute to go Ibrahimovic produced one of the misses of the season, putting over from no more than three yards out after a fabulous Paul Pogba delivery and with that the chance of victory was gone.
