Premier League 2019/20: 3 Reasons why Manchester United beat Chelsea

#3 The hosts took initiative of the game in the second half

Manchester United v Chelsea FC - Premier League

Manchester United went in to the interval with a 1-0 lead but their performance was far from convincing, as Chelsea were arguably the better side.

As Frank Lampard's side looked threatening and signaled their intent to strike back, the hosts took initiative of the game and ran out convincing winners in the second-half.

Paul Pogba in particular had two contrasting halves of football but the mercurial midfielder finished the game with two assists to his name.

The Frenchman was caught napping on a few occasions Chelsea had no problems bypassing the United midfield as they threatened to come back in to the game despite trailing 1-0.

The World Cup winner showed his true quality in the second half as he was central to all of Manchester United's attacks.

His pass was brilliantly latched on to by Marcus Rashford for the game's third goal and he made a defining contribution once again as Danny James put the icing on the cake with the fourth goal.

Manchester United looked a different team in the second half and killed off the game with incredible efficiency just as Chelsea began to threaten.
