A match that began with a gentle ebb and flow ended with both sides swinging at each other like two drunks slugging it out in an alley. This was an enthralling stalemate both managers felt they could have won, but each seemed content with a point earned largely through excellent performances from defenders prepared time and again to throw their bodies on the line. For Roberto Martínez, it was satisfying, considering that in Brendan Galloway, John Stones and Tyias Browning he had three defenders aged 21 or under in an all-English back four.
