New Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim began his stint at the Premier League club with a 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town.
The 39-year-old began work officially on November 11 and waited for the international break to be over before his first game.
Marcus Rashford gave the Red Devils a dream start with a goal within the opening two minutes.
But the hosts responded before the break with a stunning finish from Omari Hutchinson.
Ipswich had chances from Liam Delap to claim a second, but ultimately settled for a draw at Portman Road.
Amorim’s next league game will be against Everton at Old Trafford.
Elsewhere, Liverpool beat bottom side Southampton 3-2 on Sunday to build a sizeable eight-point lead over reigning champions Manchester City after Mohamed Salah led a second-half comeback for the visitors.
Liverpool were trailing 2-1 when Salah scored twice in the second half to take his season’s tally to 10 goals in the league, two behind the league’s top scorer Erling Haaland of City.
After City lost their third straight league game on Saturday, a 4-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur. Liverpool took full advantage and Arne Slot’s side now have 31 points from 12 games to City’s 23 ahead of their clash at Anfield next weekend.
