Fernandes stars again for Man United but Bournemouth worth a point in 2-2 scrap
BOURNEMOUTH, England (AP) --- Bruno Fernandes got a goal and an assist and
Harry Maguire marked his return to the England squad by getting a red card as
Manchester United drew 2-2 at Bournemouth in the Premier League on Friday.
After a dull first half, Fernandes, so often United's saviour, put the visitor
ahead from the penalty spot an hour in.
Ryan Christie equalized for Bournemouth with a perfectly executed low shot six
minutes later.
Fernandes' in-swinging corner was headed into his own goal by James Hill under
pressure from Maguire at the far post.
Then with 12 minutes remaining Maguire --- who hours earlier was named in
Thomas Tuchel's squad for pre-World Cup friendlies against Uruguay and Japan
--- was red-carded for bringing down Evanilson in the box.
Teenage Bournemouth forward Junior Kroupi converted the penalty to make it 2-2.
The home side threw everything at its more illustrious visitor during a frantic
final push but could not get a winner. Instead, it was a fifth consecutive draw
for the Cherries, whose unbeaten run clicked on to 11 matches.
Bournemouth was 10th in the table.
Manchester United remained in third place, six points behind Manchester City.
