Manchester United Draws 1-1 Against FC Twente

Manchester United began their 2024/25 Europa League campaign with a disappointing 1-1 draw against FC Twente at Old Trafford. Christian Eriksen opened the scoring for United in the 35th minute, but a defensive error allowed Sam Lammers to equalize for Twente in the 68th minute. Despite dominating the match with 19 shots compared to Twente's 7, United failed to capitalize on their chances, with Twente goalkeeper Lars Unnerstall making a crucial save in stoppage time. The draw leaves United with only one point as they look ahead to their next match against Porto on October 3. Among Premier League teams, only Liverpool secured a win in their opening fixtures, while Manchester City and Arsenal also drew their matches. United's recent form has been mixed, winning only two of their last six games, raising concerns as they aim for European success.
