Zlatan Ibrahimovic scores Manchester United's equaliser against Liverpool
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's equaliser against Liverpool means he has scored 14 goals in his first 20 Premier League games

Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored a late equaliser as Manchester United earned a draw against rivals Liverpool.

Ibrahimovic headed in after Marouane Fellaini had nodded against the post as the home side pressed for an equaliser.

The visitors had taken the lead when James Milner converted a first-half penalty following Paul Pogba's handball.

Georginio Wijnaldum could have won it for Liverpool in added time but hit a tame shot at keeper David de Gea.

The result left Liverpool in third place, seven points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea, while United remain sixth - 12 points behind the Blues.
