Chelsea vs Manchester United: 5 Talking Points & Tactical Analysis

#4 Chelsea gift Manchester United the lead in the second half

Anthony Martial scored twice for Manchester United in the second half

Manchester United did not have a clear plan of attack apart from their attempts to counter in the first half. But the second half did see the players in more advanced positions as they searched for a goal.

But United had a stroke of luck with Marcos Alonso supposedly down injured in the box as play continued. The ball fell to Anthony Martial who took his shot without any pressure - two yards in front of Alonso - to score.

At 1-1, Chelsea had to attack more and the game became a lot more open. That was when David Luiz made a massive error to allow United back into the game.

As Juan Mata chased a ball down the touchline, the ball bounced high with Luiz attempting to head it into the stands. But Mata's touch denied him the opportunity and suddenly the Red Devils had a numerical advantage with Luiz taken out of the game.

Rashford received the ball and spread the play out to the other side of the box where Martial took one touch to move the ball past Cesar Azpilicueta and curl the ball into the far corner of Kepa Arrizabalaga's goal to make it 2-1 to United.
