What is a 'draw' in football?

A draw, or a tie, in football means both teams have scored the same number of goals by the end of the match. In this story, Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Fulham means neither team won, and both gained a single point in the league standings. It can feel like a missed opportunity or a hard-fought result.
