Zlatan Ibrahimovic had a penalty saved as Manchester United were held 1-1 by Bournemouth, missing the opportunity to move ahead of Liverpool and into fifth in a feisty game at Old Trafford.
United fashioned the game's first chance in the opening two minutes when Antonio Valencia's floated cross was headed over by Wayne Rooney.
Within moments, Josh King barged Phil Jones off the ball at the other end -- but when referee Kevin Friend waved play on, the Bournemouth man failed to find a colleague.
It was a breathless start, and after five minutes Paul Pogba raced onto a long pass from Luke Shaw and saw his low effort well saved by Artur Boruc.
