Edinson Cavani stepped off the bench to mark his first Premier League appearance since October with the equaliser as Manchester United drew 1-1 at Newcastle United.
Newcastle went ahead with a stunning strike from Allan Saint-Maximin on seven minutes. Sean Longstaff's threaded pass picked out the Frenchman, who cut inside two defenders before expertly placing the ball into the far corner.
Saint-Maximin was denied at close range by David De Gea, seconds after the break, before his opposite number Martin Dubravka made a flying save from Marcus Rashford's swerving, long-range effort as Man Utd responded.
Cavani struck the equaliser with 20 minutes left, firing home at the second attempt, and the Uruguayan nearly added a second five minutes later only for Dubravka to avert the danger.
In a pulsating finish, Jacob Murphy hit the post and De Gea superbly tipped Miguel Almiron's follow-up shot over the bar as Newcastle had to settle for a point.
Man Utd remain in seventh spot with 28 points.
Newcastle, who lost Callum Wilson and Saint-Maximin to injury, lie 19th with 11 points.
