Man Utd's "what if" moment pinpointed as changing course of Premier League season

Manchester United 's late loss to Arsenal at the Emirates in January has been cited as their "what if" moment by former player Paul Ince.

The Red Devils headed to north London off the back of five wins in six games, knowing a win would take them to within five points of top spot as they continued to gather momentum. Eventually though they would be undone by a dramatic Eddie Nketiah strike in the 90th minute.

United had taken the lead courtesy of Marcus Rashford and then fought back to make it 2-2 when Lisandro Martinez headed home, but couldn't hold on for a point. Since the reverse they've won just three of their last seven games, which has seen them fall out of title contention.
