Joe Allen scored a late equaliser to cancel out Anthony Martial's opener as Stoke City came from behind to secure a 1-1 draw against Manchester United.
United, who again started with Wayne Rooney as a substitute, could have been ahead inside the opening two minutes after Paul Pogba played in Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but the striker was unable to find a way past Lee Grant, who also got up to deny him on the rebound.
Martial picked up the ball inside the box, after Rooney had been involved in the build-up, before the Frenchman then curled into the far corner with a fine finish that left Grant with no chance.
But with United looking set to see out the closing stages of the game, Stoke found an equaliser in the 82nd minute as De Gea fumbled a save with Jonathan Walters then forcing the rebound onto the bar, before Allen arrived to convert into the back of the net.
The match ended 1-1.
