The Red Devils came close to taking the lead but a second-half strike from Alejandro Garnacho was ruled out following a freak incident.
Bruno Fernandes had crossed the ball into the winger at the back post, who looked to place his shot into the bottom-right corner.
However, new boy Joshua Zirkzee slid in and made contact on the line meaning it was offside.
The incident occurred just minutes after Amad Diallo equalised for United.
Danny Welbeck opened the scoring for the hosts during the first half.
It was his 100th club career goal.
