Holmberg's stoppage-time goal rescues Arsenal draw at Man United in WSL

Manchester United's hopes of a clean sheet were dashed when Arsenal equalised in stoppage time to claim a 1-1 draw in the Women's Super League on Saturday. Julia Zigiotti Olme's second-half goal had seemingly secured all three points for United after she exploited a defensive error from Georgia Stanway, who misplaced a pass allowing her to score easily past Misa Rodriguez.

However, Arsenal secured a point in the fifth minute of added time when Smilla Holmberg volleyed the ball into the net following a cross from Leah Williamson, denying United their first league win under new manager Eva Olid. United now sit 13th in the table, still searching for their first victory after opening the season with defeats to London City and Chelsea.
