Cole Palmer’s two late penalties shock Red Devils in topsy-turvy game

Manchester United concede twice in last two minutes to lose to ChelseaAfter Alejandro Garnacho had punished woeful Chelsea defending for 2-1, Antony played a part in the build-up to Bruno Fernandes’s equaliser. And it was Antony who would produce the wonderful cross after a quick United counter for 3-2, Garnacho nodding home on the bounce. Garnacho was also impressive.

The teams had kicked off in 12th and sixth respectively, a far cry from when this was one of the fixtures of the season, the principal prematch teaser taking in which Chelsea and which United would turn up.

Palmer was a menace. There were times when he tormented Dalot with his twinkle toes and gliding moves. Casemiro’s lack of mobility at the base of the United midfield was a major problem and Chelsea advertised a goal for 3-0, namely when Axel Disasi got in unmarked at the far post to meet a Gallagher free-kick. He headed wastefully off target.
