Come-back

David Luiz scored an own goal, and Robin Van Persie made it 0-2 but Chelsea staged a late come back, equalizing through a wonderful Juan Mata free kick and a Ramires header.

Chelsea defender, Branislav Ivanovic was sent off in the 63rd minute for a tackle on Ashley Young while Fernando Torres was shown his second yellow card for allegedly diving following a challenge by Manchester United center-back Jonny Evans.

Chicha

Chicharito ensured Manchester United picked the maximum points, tapping in a Rafael Da Silva’s cross in the 75th minute.

Despite the loss, Chelsea is still at the top of the table with 22 points while Manchester United has moved off third to go second with a point less, both having played nine matches.
