Southampton vs Manchester United result: Jannik Vestergaard earns 10-man home team hard-earned point

Relive Southampton's 1-1 draw with Manchester United

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirms Chris Smalling is set to leave Manchester United for Roma

Jannik Vestergaard scored his first goal in English football to earn 10-man Southampton a point against Manchester United.

United took the lead early in the first-half when summer signing Daniel James lashed home his third goal in just four games.

But Southampton fought back in the second-half and levelled the score when Vestergaard rose above Victor Lindelof to head home. Kevin Danso was then shown a second yellow card for the home team, but they held out for a valuable point. Relive the action below:

What is your prediction?

Southampton have enjoyed a positive week: winning away at both Brighton & Hove Albion and Fulham in the Premier League and Carabao Cup respectively.

Manchester United are a totally different proposition of course, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer does have two big injuries to contend with. So we’re boldly predicting a 2-2 draw.
