Manchester United got their first point since the start of the season at Old Trafford – 0: 0 against Chelsea. The Red Devils had many positions against the Blues, but Edward Mendy made several phenomenal saves and did not allow a goal in his goal. Edinson Cavani recorded his debut for United.
Thus, Chelsea remains in sixth place in the standings with an asset of 9 points, while Manchester United continues their unconvincing performances at home, and in the championship they are ranked 15th with an asset of 7 points.
In the torrential rain in Manchester, both teams started equally and the situation in the first half hour was small. So the first most interesting thing in front of both doors was created by the Chelsea goalkeeper. Thiago Silva returned a ball to Mandy, who kicked it carelessly and headed threateningly to his door. Luckily for him, the ball went outside the beam.
Soon after, the Senegalese showed his class. Marcus Rashford faced him alone, but Mandy deflected with her foot after a big reflection. Soon after, Mandy deflected a very dangerous shot from Mata from the edge of the penalty area.
The first part will be remembered with the claims of both teams for a penalty. The first situation was in the Manchester United penalty area, where Harry Maguire helped himself with both hands in a high ball fight with César Aspilicueto. At the front door, the VAR cleared up a controversial situation due to Silva’s foul against Rashford. And there was no signal from the referee.
In the 58th minute, Solskjaer debuted with Edinson Cavani, releasing him and Paul Pogba in place of Juan Mata and Daniel James. Cavani was able to sign with his first touch. Bruno Fernandes and Luc Shaw took a short corner kick, the defender centered at the near post, where Cavani put Haverz ahead but directed the ball away from the gate.
On the counter, Reese James crossed from the right wing, and Haverz and Pulisic successively missed the ball. In added time of the game, Rashford again tested Mendy’s reflexes with a return kick from the edge of the penalty area. However, the Chelsea goalkeeper refused to leave the ball behind and saved again.
