Manchester United Held By Ipswich In Ruben Amorim's First Match In Charge

Ruben Amorim was given a stark illustration of the size of his task at Manchester United after his uninspiring team were held 1-1 by struggling Ipswich in his first match in charge on Sunday. The former Sporting Lisbon boss -- the latest man tasked with restoring the club to the top of English football -- spoke before kick-off about the need to be "patient". But he had barely settled in his seat at a blustery Portman Road before Marcus Rashford turned in Amad Diallo's inviting cross, stunning the home crowd.

Ipswich, who started the day in the relegation zone, battled back, earning the equaliser they deserved through Omari Hutchinson just before half-time.

Neither side could find a winner in the second period despite chances at both ends, with the result leaving both managers unsatisfied.
