00:00Well the final whistle's just gone here at Old Trafford, where Chelsea and Manchester United
00:03have drawn 1-1 in a flawed but entertaining game. A bit of a lack of quality in the final
00:08third from both teams, particularly from United who missed a couple of glaring chances to win it
00:14late on. The star from a Chelsea perspective though was Moises Caicedo, maybe his best
00:18performance in a Chelsea shirt. He was player of the match, he scored their equalising goal
00:22with a phenomenal volley and he just outworked, outran, outread the likes of Casemiro and Manuel
00:28in the Manchester United midfield. You can read more about his performance over on Standard Sport.
00:34Another disappointing afternoon by contrast for Enzo Fernandes, who didn't start the game but
00:39came off the bench and missed a really good opportunity to make it 2-1 to Chelsea,
00:44kind of symptomatic of his start to the season. And also an iffy afternoon again for Robert Sanchez,
00:49who actually did some good things in the first half but was just a bit rash in his decision
00:53making in coming out for the penalty for United. There'll be scrutiny again on his place after a
00:59series of errors in recent weeks. But as I say, you can read more over on Standard Sport and we'll
01:03have all the reaction as well from Enzo Moresca.
