Man Utd held by Brentford as Tottenham, Villa win in top four chase

Manchester United lost more ground in the battle for a place in next season's Champions League after they were held to a 1-1 draw at Brentford on Saturday. Meanwhile, Son Heung-min fired Tottenham to a 2-1 win over Luton, which put them in the fourth place in the Premier League, before Aston Villa quickly retained their ranking after a 2-0 victory over Wolves and are three points clear of the Spurs.

Mason Mount's first goal for the Reds in the 96th minute looked set to snatch victory for Erik ten Hag's men despite being thoroughly outplayed. However, Brentford hit back three minutes later through Kristoffer Ajer to register their second point in seven games.

The Spurs have now come from behind to win in four of their last five home games and needed another second-half turnaround after Tahith Chong's strike put Luton into a shock lead after just three minutes.

Ange Postecoglou's halftime substitution again had an impact on Tottenham, as Brennan Johnson's cross was turned into his own net by Issa Kabore just six minutes after the Welsh international's introduction.

Son had missed several chances earlier in the game, but fortune finally smiled on him when his attempt at deflection trickled past Thomas Kaminski for his 15th goal of the season.

Tottenham's victory briefly took them into fourth, but Villa responded. Goals from Moussa Diaby and Ezri Konsa gave them the bragging rights from a Midlands derby.

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino was met with another backlash at Stamford Bridge after his side failed to make the most of an extra man for the entire second half and drew 2-2 against second-bottom Burnley.

The Blues appeared on course to cruise to victory after Lorenz Assignon was sent off for pulling down Mykhailo Mudryk inside the area.

Burnley boss Vincent Kompany was also shown a red card for taking his protests too far.

Cole Palmer coolly chipped in the resulting penalty, but the 10 men leveled two minutes into the second half thanks to Josh Cullen's super finish from outside the box.

Raheem Sterling had been booed off in Chelsea's FA Cup quarterfinal win over Leicester a fortnight ago but thought he had set up the winner in style with a flick that Palmer stroked into the far corner.

However, Chelsea failed to hold out again, as Dara O'Shea headed the ball into a corner nine minutes from time.
