Published: July 19, 2017
Manchester United XI came from behind to draw 2-2 with National League North club Salford City in a pre-season friendly at Moor Lane on Wednesday night.
The Lagos-born midfielder Tosin Kehinde started the game for the Red Devils, teammate Matthew Olosunde came off the bench, Emmanuel Dieseruvwe was in Salford City's starting XI and goalkeeper Nosakhare Aghayere subbed in for the home team.
Goals from Lois Maynard and Liam Hogan gave Salford City a 2-0 lead heading into the interval.
United pulled a goal back in the 66th minute when Nosakhare Aghayere fumbled the ball into his own net after a free-kick taken by Gribbin.
The visitors probed for an equalizer and got it through Charlie Scott, who scored from ten yards out to make it 2-2.
Manchester United U18s and U23s returned to England last weekend after a week-long training camp in Austria.
