Manchester United 2-2 West Bromwich Albion

West Bromwich Albion came from two down to earn a draw at Old Trafford.  

Javier Hernandez gave Manchester United the lead after just five minutes, tapping in after Scott Carson had parried from Nani who then got the second on 25 minutes with a left-foot shot following a one-two with Dimitar Berbatov.  
But the Baggies scored two in five minutes at the start of the second half. After 50 minutes a deflected free-kick from Chris Brunt went in off Patrice Evra before bouncing beyond Edwin van der Sar, who was unable to claw it out. If that was bad, what followed was even worse for the hosts as Brunt lofted a high cross skywards into the United six-yard box which should have provided Van der Sar with the easiest of catches.
Instead, the veteran Dutchman dropped the ball straight at the feet of Somen Tchoyi, who gleefully tapped into an empty net.
