Thrilling draw

Hey guys!

Yesterday I watched the match between Chelsea and Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.

And the result was:

CHELSEA 3-3 MANCHESTER UNITED


A Jonny Evans own goal gave Chelsea an undeserved lead in the first half, and 54 seconds into the second half, Juan Mata slammed in Chelsea's second. Mata then whipped in a free kick that David Luiz headed onto Rio Ferdinand and flew into the top corner. However, you can never write Manchester United off until the match is over, even if you're 3-0 up at home. Patrice Evra was then fouled by Daniel Sturridge in the penalty box. Sturridge was by far Chelsea's best player in this match, but that mistake cost them dearly. Wayne Rooney stepped up to fire the spot kick into the top corner. Then, Branislav Ivanovic slid in but mistimed his tackle on Danny Welbeck, resulting in another penalty. This time, Rooney chose the other way to give his team hope. Then in the 84th minute, substitute Javier Hernandez headed in Ryan Giggs' cross from close range. What a comeback.
