Antony assist labelled 'pass of the season' during Man Utd's dramatic defeat to Chelsea

Antony 's assist for Alejandro Garnacho 's second goal against Chelsea has been labelled the "pass of the season".Erik ten Hag's men made a dismal start to the game as Conor Gallagher swiped home Malo Gusto's deflected cross to put the Blues ahead.Cole Palmer then doubled Chelsea 's lead from the spot, after Antony clumsily fouled Marc Cucurella in the box.

But United turned the game on its head on the stroke of half-time. First, Alejandro Garnacho pounced on a Moises Caicedo mistake to score, before Bruno Fernandes nodded in a Diogo Dalot cross moments later.Antony hit an exceptional cross from deep with the outside of his foot which Garnacho bravely converted past Djordje Petrovic.On person on X labelled it the "pass of the season" while another said: "That pass is Quaresma-esque from Antony. So, so good.

A third joked: "Antony using the outside of the left boot for that pass rather than get his three wood golf club lamppost doc marten breeze block of a right foot out of the bag."But the game still had time for another twist. Chelsea equalised in the 96th minute through a second Palmer penalty and the 21-year-old went on to score the winner and complete his hat-trick just 82 seconds later, in what was among the most chaotic games of the season.
