Bruno Fernandes scored from the penalty spot as Manchester United drew 1-1 with Chelsea in their second match under interim head coach Ruud van Nistelrooy.
United made one change from the side that faced West Ham in their final Premier League clash under Erik ten Hag, as Manuel Ugarte replaced the injured Christian Eriksen in midfield.
Chelsea twice went close to an early opener when Cole Palmer's effort was blocked by Matthijs de Ligt and when Noni Madueke headed the ball against the post from a corner. United had a few good moments on the counter-attack through Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho, but rarely tested Robert Sanchez during a tight first-half that saw Chelsea edge the crucial midfield contest.
Chelsea went close after the restart when Pedro Neto fired an effort wide of the United goal, while at the other end Rashford cut inside and fired a low attempt straight at the Chelsea goal and Garnacho wasted a glorious opportunity as he scuffed a shot when totally unmarked inside the box.
The game sparked into life in the final twenty minutes of the match as Bruno Fernandes put United ahead from the penalty spot after Rasmus Hojlund was brought down by Sanchez, but the lead only lasted a matter of minutes when Moises Caicedo drew his side level with a sweet volley from the edge of the area.
United continued to push for a late winner but failed to test Sanchez as Garnacho volleyed just over the bar and Fernandes launched a speculative effort into the second tier of the Stretford End.
In the end, a draw was probably the fair result as Van Nistelrooy drew his first Premier League match as interim head coach. Here is how we rated the United players during the Chelsea clash:
