Dorgu's Last-Minute Equaliser Rescues Manchester United

In a thrilling encounter at Old Trafford, Manchester United drew 4-4 with Aston Villa, with Dorgu scoring a dramatic equaliser in the 97th minute, which helped save manager Michael Carrick's job. Aston Villa took an early two-goal lead, with Alysson scoring in the first minute and Nicolas Jackson adding a second shortly after.

Bruno Fernandes converted a penalty in the 16th minute after Boubacar Kamara fouled Matheus Cunha, reducing the deficit. United equalised just before half-time through Youri Tielemans, who scored against his former club.

However, Villa regained the lead early in the second half when Diogo Dalot fouled Alysson, allowing John McGinn to score from the penalty spot. Leon Goretzka extended Villa's lead to 4-2 shortly after.

United fought back, with Joshua Zirkzee scoring before Dorgu's late equaliser sparked celebrations at Old Trafford.
