Mason Greenwood scored his second goal of the season as Manchester United equalled Arsenal's Premier League record of 27 successive unbeaten away matches with a 1-1 draw at Southampton.
Harry Maguire hit the woodwork after connecting with Bruno Fernandes' free-kick before Mohammed Salisu cleared the loose ball off the line as Man Utd went close on seven minutes.
Paul Pogba then headed narrowly over from a Luke Shaw cross but despite their bright start, the visitors went behind in the 30th minute when Che Adams' shot deflected in off Fred.
Man Utd levelled 10 minutes into the second half with a low finish from Greenwood after Pogba had created the opening with his fifth assist of the season.
Greenwood, twice, and Fernandes went close as the Red Devils pressed for the winner.
But it was Southampton who nearly claimed the three points, David De Gea denying Adam Armstrong with an instinctive parry after Adams had played the striker in on 74 minutes.
