The Blues led 2:0, then lost, but scored twice in stoppage time
Chelsea on his field in a crazy match, scoring twice in stoppage time, he snatched victory over Manchester United in the 31st round match English Premier League – 4:3.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side started strongly. Already in the debut, Conor Gallagher opened the scoring, and soon Mikhail Mudrik launched Mark Cucurella into the penalty area, who was brought down by Anthony. Cole Palmer converted the penalty.
The Ukrainian winger, apart from the mentioned attack, was generally ineffective and left the field in the 70th minute. In 32 matches of the season, Mikhail scored six goals and provided four assists.
Towards the end of the half, Manchester United came back, and did it visually very easily. First, Alejandro Garnacho took advantage of a blunder by Moises Caicedo, and then, during a quick attack, Bruno Fernandes crossed in from Diogo Dalot.
In the middle of the second half, the Red Devils seemed to have won a strong-willed victory. Garnacho scored a double after Anthony’s masterly pass during another counterattack.
But it was not there. At the very end of stoppage time, Noni Madueke earned a penalty, and Palmer was again accurate from 11 meters. Further – more: the last attack of the Blues led to a corner, and after his play the same Palmer shot, and a serious rebound from Scott McTominay left Andre Onana out of work.
Chelsea scored 43 points and moved up to 10th place. Erik Ten Hag’s team remained in sixth position.
