Manchester United's slack defending, blown lead vs. Everton will fracture their title aspirations

MANCHESTER, England -- When referee Jon Moss blew the final whistle on Saturday, Victor Lindelof picked up the ball and punted it into the empty Old Trafford stands: The action summed up Manchester United's night.

Having led 2-0 and then 3-2 with seconds remaining, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side managed to draw 3-3 with Everton and give up more ground in the Premier League title race.

As the players trudged off amid the visitor's celebrations, it felt a lot like the 4-4 draw with Everton in April 2012 that ended up costing United the league.
