Sigurdsson strikes as Swansea hold Man United

A stunning free-kick from Gylfi Sigurdsson gave Swansea City a draw at Old Trafford against Manchester United that could be crucial in their battle to stay in the Premier League.


The Swans had the better of the first half, with Fernando Llorente and Jordan Ayew forcing saves from David De Gea, but United took the lead through Wayne Rooney's penalty in first-half stoppage time.

United, who lost Luke Shaw and Eric Bailly to injury during the match, improved after half-time but Swansea claimed a point when Sigurdsson fired into the top corner with 11 minutes to go.

Swansea remain in the bottom three but are now two points behind Hull City with three matches to go.


Fifth-placed Man Utd are level on points with Manchester City in fourth having played two matches more.
