Manchester United could have been condemned to an embarrassing home loss by Sunderland on Saturday, but a last-gasp own-goal from visitors' Anton Ferdinand ended the Premiership game in a 2-2 draw. The 24-year-old center back deflected a Patrice Evra left-footed shot into his own net deep into injury time, to deny his team a precious win. Earlier, Sunderland took the lead after seven minutes, thanks to a Darren Bent delightful drive from the edge of the area. Dimitar Berbatov leveled the score nine minutes from the hour mark with an acrobatic effort. Kenwyne Jones headed home eight minutes later to put the Black Cats in front once again, before their slender lead was canceled out in the dying minutes. United remain the Premier League leaders with 19 points, one point ahead of second-placed Chelsea. The Blues will host Liverpool on Sunday, and they will go top should they defeat the Reds. Sunderland lie sixth with 13 points. The match's goals
