Benjamin Sesko addresses Manchester United draw against Everton
Summary

Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko is calling for a positive outlook after a late equalizer from Ainsley Maitland-Niles resulted in a 2-2 draw against Everton at Hill Dickinson Stadium on Sunday. Despite Sesko scoring for the visitors, the stoppage-time goal denied United consecutive league wins. The club remains in a recovery phase under coach Michael Carrick following an opening weekend loss to Hull. United now transitions focus toward their upcoming Champions League opener against Sabah this Thursday. Sesko, who has been limited to three substitute appearances this season due to a recurring shin injury, aims for his first start of the campaign in the midweek fixture.
