Increasingly however the Blues were applying pressure on an opposition who by now had lost Varane from their defence due to injury. Chelsea certainly would admit we were giving the ball away too often during that spell and our opponents were finding space in the centre of the park.

Cristiano Ronaldo dropped by Erik ten Hag for their trip to Chelsea after refusing to come on as a late substitute against Tottenham before leaving early; ...
"They beat Spurs the other night and thought they'd won the European Cup. They got hammered against Man City [without him], they lost to Brighton, they lost to Brentford, they've drawn today and celebrated like they've won the league. "He has to take his punishment. Can he get back into the team before the World Cup? "Everyone was saying after the Spurs game it was Manchester United's best performance in years. "They asked the manager in the press conference about Ronaldo refusing to come on but they should have asked him when was he going to put him on? Cristiano is too good a player, too fantastic a character and the club have got to move on. "I'm going to try and defend him. 'I count on him') and that he "counts" on him for the rest of the season, but Sky Sports pundit Neville believes the 37-year-old should leave.

Casemiro leaped up to meet it and while Kepa got a touch to it, the ball bounced off the post and over the line as the Brazilian wheeled away in a euphoric celebration to celebrate his first Reds goal. With six minutes of added time given, Shaw drove down the left-hand side and floated a ball into the area. Mason Mount found Raheem Sterling in a big amount of space, but a combination of Casemiro getting tight to him and Dalot putting pressure on Aubameyang squandered the chance for the Blues. There was a blow for United on the hour-mark when Rafael Varane picked up a serious-looking injury which forced the Frenchman off. And it nearly paid off when Shaw picked the ball up from a Christian Eriksen pass. It would have been a harsh result on the Reds, but the drama didn't end there as United fought back to grab a deserved point in injury time.

It was a piece of defending that Roy Keane called "lazy" and lacked "desire." When United required a piece of quality, Shaw delivered in added time, whipping in the fantastic cross that Casemiro headed home that nabbed his team a point. "Gareth Southgate wasn't at Stamford Bridge but he'll no doubt be across the performances of his two left-backs that are all-but certain to be in his England squad for the World Cup. "And who was Casemiro bullying at the back post for that goal? Let's focus on this game, it was a good game for my team and I have to compliment my team. The Chelsea full-back had a very quiet 90 minutes, offering little going forward and failing to defend his box at a critical time when his team needed him.

Chelsea manager Graham Potter told Sky Sports: "It's disappointing because at 1-0 you can see the end but over the course of the game, a point is about right. The tactical battle continued after the break, with Chelsea increasing in confidence when Raphael Varane was forced off injured, though neither side truly asserted authority.
