Published: October 20, 2018
Chelsea and Manchester United shared the spoils in a four-goal thriller on Saturday afternoon.
The English Premier League early kickoff between the two rivals ended 2-2.
Former Nigerian international Victor Moses wasn't named in the 18-man squad of Chelsea for the epic clash at Stamford Bridge.
The Red Devils weren't fancied to cause an upset against a side yet to suffer defeat at home in the English Premier League this term.
Both teams tried to cancel each other out in the cracker which was played at an electrifying pace.
A superb Willian corner met the rising Antonio Ruediger, who directed his header into the bottom left of the United goal in the 20th minute.
Chelsea had a couple of chances to double the lead but they failed to score as the first stanza ended 1-0 in London.
French international Antony Martial levelled up matters for United with a sweet volley.
Midfielder Ngolo Kante forced goalkeeper David de Gea to a brilliant save with a sumptuous shot.
The former AS Monaco winger helped the three-time UEFA Champions League winners race into the lead for the first time with a brilliant curler that went past Kepa.
Juan Mata broke down the right wing, Marcus Rashford worked it to Martial who finished brilliantly to put United ahead.
