West Bromwich Albion defender Craig Dawson has insisted that there are plenty of positives to take away from tonight's 2-2 draw with Manchester United.

The Baggies looked to be closing in on an impressive victory over Louis van Gaal's side before Daley Blind stroked an 87th-minute equaliser past Boaz Myhill.

"It was a great team performance and we did well to get the second goal," the defender told Sky Sports News. "It's a shame we couldn't hold on in the end.

"First time playing against United, it was difficult. They've got so many great players, but I think the team played really well tonight.

"We've got to take that into the next game. We'll take the positives out of tonight."

Marouane Fellaini struck shortly after the interval to cancel out Stephane Sessegnon's first-half stunner, before in-form Saido Berahino re-established the lead on 66 minutes.
