Maxim Choupo-Moting's double cost Manchester United their first points of the season as Stoke came from behind to draw 2-2.
The Cameroon striker put the Potters ahead before the Red Devils reacted with goals from Marcus Rashford, after Paul Pogba's headed deflected off him, and Romelu Lukaku.
Choupo-Moting grabbed his second but United could have won it at the death.
