  • 93'
    FT: Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd!! All over at the Bridge!! I'd say that's a fair score. Chelsea started the first half well, United then picked up and then in the second period, Chelsea showed more ambition going forward while United were countering and seemed more content with the point. De Gea's superb save to deny Ziyech was easily the chance of the match. However, opportunities like that were few and far between.
  • 93'
    Fred!!! He has the ball 30 yards out, but his powerful effort is straight at Mendy who pushes away.
  • 93'
    R James' delivery is half-cleared to Kovacic and his effort is easy for the goalie.

    Shaw is penalised for a foul on R James. This will go into the box.

    Still goalless here and this will end in a draw.

  • 85'
    Werner has a go now and his effort goes straight at De Gea.
  • 83'
    Chance for Chelsea!! R James sends a brilliant cross in for Werner at the back stick and Lindelof slides to deflect it away for a corner! Brilliant defending! It should've been a corner.
  • 81'
    Chelsea are trying to get a winner, but they look tired and United seem to have settled for the draw.

    Still 0-0 and the game seems to have calmed down in the last few minutes. I think this will end goalless.
  • 67'
    Fred!!! The Brazilian hits a curling shot from just outside the area which goes narrowly wide of Mendy's left hand post! It might even have shaved the upright.
  • 65'
    Chelsea sub: Pulisic on for Giroud.

  • 45'
    Chelsea sub: R James is on for Hudson-Odoi and OGS is talking to the linesman about that penalty decision.
  • 45'
    HT: Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd!! Half-time at the Bridge and I'd say it's fair. Chelsea started better, but United picked up as the half went on. The big moment was when Hudson-Odoi handled the ball in his own box, the VAR called the ref over, but Attwell surprisingly stuck with no penalty. There haven't really been any clear cut chances, but both sides have had some half-chances. Back for more shortly!
  • 45'
    45+2: Rudiger and McTominay have a coming together. The Chelsea man puts his arm around McTominay and the United man doesn't seem too keen on it.

  • 21'
    Chance for Hudson-Odoi!!! A ball forward is sent to Hudson-Odoi and he hits wide of the goal!
  • 17'
    Chris Kavanagh (from Manchester, by the way), thought it should have been a penalty, but Attwell didn't agree.
  • 16'
    No penalty to Man Utd!!! He says no handball! The ball touches Hudson-Odoi's arm and I think he's very lucky.
  • 16'
    The ref is going to the screen as the ball touches Hudson-Odoi's outstretched arm in the Chelsea box before it touches Greenwood's.

  • 14'
    Rashford!!! He's goes for goal and Mendy punches it away!
  • 12'
    Colission between McTominay and Mount as the United man goes for the ball. The United man gets the ball and then wipes out Mount, but the ref gives United the free-kick! Strange decision by Attwell.

    It's a very fast start to the contest and Chelsea are definitely on top.
