Man United currently have the worst home clean sheets record in the premier league with 2, De Gea is looking to make amends his mistakes in previous matches.
Within 4 minutes Kepa has to make a save against Lukaku. Only 6 minutes later and Man U have broken the deadlock through the ex-Chelsea man Juan Mata scoring on his birthday. In the 29th minute Eric Bailly has a chance that just steers wide after he beat Alonso. 13 minutes later and Chelsea capitalise on a yet another De Gea mistake through a strike from Marcus Alonso that came of the inside right post and just going in.
For a large period of the game there was next to no action apart from Rudiger’s and Eris Bailly’s injuries. In the 93rd minute there is finally a chance when Sanchez finds Rojo from a corner but Pedro is on hand to stop the ball on the goal-line. 4 minutes later and Higuain is played onside but De Gea is there to make a stop at the 6-yard box. If this had gone in then it surely would have been the winner. The game finished at 1-1.
Through out the game there was little action although Chelsea’s 16 shots and Man United’s 7.
