Manchester United and Middlesbrough must replay their FA Cup quarter-final after Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty earned the visitors a 2-2 draw.
Wayne Rooney put United in front midway through the first half, but Boro equalised through Lee Cattermole a minute before the break.
The Red Devils started the second period badly when George Boateng headed the hosts in front just after the restart.
However, the Boro captain handled in the area 20 minutes from time and Ronaldo stepped up to ensure the Teessiders must travel to Old Trafford for a replay a week on Monday.
The opening goal came after 23 minutes when Rooney rifled a low shot past Mark Schwarzer after being given far too much space on the edge of the area.
Boro equalised when Rio Ferdinand only half-cleared Stuart Downing's cross and Julio Arca headed back into the box for Cattermole to turn and fire home in style.
Boateng's header then put them in front when he arrived unmarked at the far post to steer home Downing's corner, before the Dutchman gave away the crucial penalty which Ronaldo slotted home casually.
