Manchester United took a step out of the crisis in the Premier League. The English record champion defeated Chelsea FC 2-1 – also because it weakened himself early.
With his second victory in the fifth game of the season, United pushed into the middle of the table, Chelsea missed it to stay at the top.
Red to emergency brake for goalkeeper Sánchez
Of all things, “Blues” goalkeeper Robert Sánchez brought Manchester onto the winning road in the fifth minute. After an emergency brake against Bryan Mbumo, he saw the red card and had to get off the square.
Manchester uses outnumbered
Then the “Red Devils” took over the game and took the lead 1-0 in the 14th minute through Bruno Fernandes. After that, only you played United and Casemiro in the 37th minute 2-0.
Casemiro also has to get off the square
In the added time of the first half, the already warned goal scorer Casemiro had to get off the field after a tactical foul with yellow-red (45.+4). The “blues”, which had hardly even become dangerous in half one, had the chance to find it back into play.
The guests actually got into play a little better after the change. Three days after the defeat for the Champions League start at the German record champions Bayern Munich (1: 3), Chelsea developed too little punch on the offensive for a long time. The goal from Trevoh Chalobah (80th) was late, Manchester United in the end brought the victory over time.
