PEEP! PEEP! PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! FULL TIME! MANCHESTER UNITED 2 - 1 CHELSEA!

Oh, that was a rather interesting game, wasn't it? Lukaku was superb, Pogba was good erring on the side of very good, Lingard was brilliant! Chelsea, on the other hand, dominated for large parts of the game - hazard was superb, Azpilicueta was on his A game, but Alvaro Morata's toothlessness cost them. Although, the goal he did score was ruled off for a very contentious offside goal - replays confirmed he was on!

Mourinho, politeness personified, walks off with a grim smile. 
...
97' Lingard heads it just ahead of COURTOIS!
...
96' CORNER FOR CHELSEA! TWO MINUTES PAST WHAT THE ASSISTANT REF THOUGHT OUGHT TO BE MINIMUM
...
94' Pogba wins a brilliant freekick inside the Chelsea half. 
...
92' OH! Romelu Lukaku absolutely pulverised the Chelsea defence here as he outfights Rudiger and then outsprints three Chelsea defenders before smashing it at Christensen. 
...
91' There will be four minutes added on.  
...
90' Pogba chases a lost cause and forces Christensen to hack it clear. 
...
89' Young tries to sneak in ahead of Willian and win the ball high up in the Chelsea area - but that he does illegally. 
...
88' Yellow for Morata has as he goes through the back of Smalling - who has marauded forwarded, no really, he has. 
...
87' OH POGBA! He bullies Azpilicueta and Fabregas, tries to keep it in the corner, but fails. 
...
86' Morata has the ball in the back of the net!!! He squeezes it under De Gea's legs but that's ruled out for offside!
...
85' Willian is hugged and brought down by Matic. That's a yellow and he knows it. Giroud tried a backheel - he connects with nothing but thin air
...
83' Valencia marauds forward, breezes past Alonso and Kante and wins a freekick. Which is rubbish from Young. 
...
82' Rudiger smashes into McTominay - and Matic takes exception to it. I wouldn't want to pick a fight with the big Serbian. 
...
81' Alonso tries to switch play and he ends up playing it out of play.  
...
80' Sanchez is subbed off for Bailly as Mourinho battens down the hatches
...
79' Matic bullies Giroud, Drinkwater bullies Matic and Chelsea try to start another flowing move... the ball is moved forward by Alonso and Giroud tries to cushion it out to Morata; but he's offside. 
...
78' A Lindelof mistake almost allows Pedro to attempt a cross, but Smalling does well to makes sure it's just a corner. Giroud comes on for Moses, Conte's throwing the kitchen sink at it. 
...
OH MY! Romelu Lukaku drifted out wide and whipped in an absolute peach of a ball that Lingard run onto and headed supremely well into the back of the net. 
...
76' GOOOOOOOOAL! LINGAAAAAAAARD!
...
75' OOO! Christensen does supremely well to win the ball off Pogba's forehead. 
...
74' Marcos Alonso leans into Valencia, pushes him and that's a freekick which Young stands over - near the corner flag. 
...
72' Pogba and Christensen come together and Conte takes the chance to bring on Pedro instead of HAZARD! Strange one that
...
70' United move forward with intent and Alexis chips it into space but Lingard's beaten to it by Rudiger. 
...
69' Hazard is brought down on the left - Willian takes a pop at it and De Gea inexplicably spills it once again! The ball almost squeezed in. 
...
68' From the corner, the Belgian keeper flaps at it; but in the midst of all that panic  - Chelsea clear. 
...
67' AMMA! AMMA! AMMA! WHAT WAS THAT! Alexis chipped in a ball that looked pointless till Lukaku contorted his body into a flying bicycle volley that takes the very best of Courtois to keep out. 
...
66' Lingard wins a corner off Azpilicueta... but his corner is rubbish as well. Young then bullies Willian off the ball and tries to race Drinkwater down the left flank - but nothing comes of it. 
...
64' Lingard's first involvement is to hammer into Willian, win the ball back, and lay it off to Sanchez. The Chilean lays it off to Pogba - but the midfielder's pass is rather rubbish. 
...
63' Finally some changes as Lingard as Martial is taken out for Jesse Lingard. 
...
62' Alexis Sanchez lets fly from thirty yards... it's low, hard, and well wide. 
...
61' Alexis finally plays a good ball in the final third and Lukaku lays it off to Martial, but the Frenchman's dink into the box is straight at Moses. 
...
60' Willian cuts in, takes out Matic before screaming one into row Z
...
59' Drinkwater slides around like a kindergarten kid let loose on a waterslide - Martial almost makes away with the ball but Azpilicueta mops things up. 
...
57' Morata does well to hold up the football and win a freekick. Drinkwater takes a pop from well out and inexplicably De Gea spills it - but Alonso is beaten to the rebound by Valencia. 
...
55' Young wins a corner off Moses, and Alexis wastes it. He does, though, track back to win the ball back. 
...
53' Martial and Pogba combine superbly - but Alexis inexplicably dithers again and loses the ball. Pogba's playing well here. Alexis is most definitely not. 
...
51' Hazard is released by a lovely ball from Willian and he tries to tee up Morata, but Smalling intercepts brilliantly. 
...
50' Pogba pulls out some beautiful flicks as he sends Moses to the cleaners before laying it off to Martial; who's touch lets him down. 
...
49' OH MY! Smalling dives in on a ball that he looked to have under control, Morata takes his time with it - and Smalling recovers to block the Spaniard's shot
...
48' Pogba bosses Kante off the ball and turns to do that fast ambling gallop of his, but Azpilicueta reads the situation brilliantly, comes out to  help his teammate out. 
...
47' Pogba clambers all over Kante and Atkinson adjudges that a foul. 
...
46' De Gea clears the ball right out of play and Chelsea are starting that patient passing rhythm once again
...
PEEP! PEEP! WE ARE OFF AGAIN!
...
Two lovely goals, and both right here for your perusal!
...
...
...
PEEP! PEEP! HALFTIME! UNITED 1 - 1 CHELSEA

A very good Willian goal was followed by a very good Lukaku goal and those two goals have illuminated a game that's grown into a rather interesting match. 
...
47' Morata and Matic jump for a ball - the Serbian leans into his face with his elbow. The Spaniard's felt that. 
...
46' Two minutes added on. Alexis and Lukaku combine to play Martial into the box, but the Frenchman's strayed offside.
