Chelsea 1-1 Manchester United: Casemiro snatches dramatic late draw
October 23, 2022
Casemiro ended Chelsea’s defensive resilience with a 94th-minute header to rescue a dramatic 1-1 draw for Manchester United at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
Jorginho put the Blues in front by converting a penalty with three minutes of normal time remaining following Scott McTominay’s foul on Armando Broja.
But United, who left Cristiano Ronaldo out of their squad for disciplinary reasons, found a leveller through Casemiro’s first goal for the club in the dying embers after defender Raphael Varane had limped off in tears.
The Red Devils remain a point behind fourth-placed Chelsea, who were unable to hold on for what would have been a sixth consecutive clean sheet, in the Premier League table.
