Chelsea 4-3 Manchester United - Cole Palmer scores twice in added time as Chelsea stun Man Utd in chaotic affair - Eurosport
The late goal by Cole Palmer led Chelsea to an incredible win at Stamford Bridge. They managed to overturn the deficit and defeat Manchester United 4-3 in a thrilling match.
The first goal of the game was scored by the home team in just four minutes, thanks to Conor Gallagher who successfully converted a shot by Malo Gusto that had been deflected. The hosts then increased their lead when Palmer punished the other team by scoring a penalty kick after Marc Cucurella was fouled.
The lead of two goals did not remain for a long time. The football team known as the Red Devils managed to tie the score before halftime. Garnacho scored a goal after Moises Caicedo made a mistake, and then Bruno Fernandes followed with a header to even the score.
In the last few minutes of the game, Gallagher aimed at the post trying to help Chelsea gain the lead again. However, they were facing a disadvantage after the half-time break when Garnacho scored his second goal by nodding the ball into the net.
After that, it seemed like the game was losing its intensity, but Palmer had different plans. He scored another penalty, bringing the score to 3-3, after Noni Madueke was fouled by Diogo Dalot. Then, he finished off his hat-trick by powerfully hitting a shot that was deflected into the back of the net, past Andre Onana.
"Has Poch's Luck Turned? Talking Point."
It's clear that Chelsea's performance this season has put a lot of stress on Mauricio Pochettino. If his team lost tonight, especially after having a lead of 3-2, the demand for his firing would have increased even more.
Lately, there has been a gradual improvement in the team's performance as they have won three out of the last five matches without being defeated in any competition. Additionally, the team was able to progress to the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
It is possible that this is a significant turning point. Even though they were losing 3-2 and seemingly on the verge of a defeat, his team managed to achieve a surprise victory and earn three points, which enabled them to rise into the upper half of the rankings. They now have the potential to continue building up their success.
"Star Performer"
Chelsea's Cole Palmer has been exceptional this season after moving from Etihad Stadium to Stamford Bridge. In this match, he was in great form, with almost every Chelsea attack going through him. It can be said without a doubt that he played faultlessly.
The striker, who has managed to score in four consecutive games at Stamford Bridge, regularly moved into areas with little to no players in order to receive the ball. Afterwards, he maneuvered his way towards the penalty area.
He was able to surpass his opponent with ease using a simple move or impressive technique. He excelled at delivering the decisive pass, as evidenced by his frequent successes. His finishing was impeccable, and one can only hope that Gareth Southgate was able to witness it.
Chelsea's starting line-up featured Petrovic with a score of 7, followed by Gusto, Disasi, Badiashile, and Cucurella all with a score of 6. Meanwhile, Palmer stood out with a perfect 10, while Caicedo, Gallagher, Fernandez, and Mudryk scored 6 or 7 points. Jackson unfortunately scored 5 points. The substitutions saw Sterling and Chukwuemeka score 6 points each, while Gilchrist and Chalobah did not receive a score, and Madueke earned an impressive 7 points.
The Manchester United team recently played a match, and here are the ratings for each player: - Onana scored a 7 - Dalot got a 6 - Varane was given a 5 - Maguire received a 7 - Wan-Bissaka was rated an 8 - Antony got an 8 as well - Casemiro was given a 6 - Fernandes got a 7 - Mainoo received a 6 - Garnacho was rated an 8 - Hojlund got a 5 There were also some substitutes who joined the game, with Evans scoring a 7, and Rashford, Kambwala, and Mt. not receiving ratings due to being absent.
The first goal of the match has just been scored! Conor Gallagher of Chelsea is the scorer, putting his team ahead of Manchester United by one point. This happened very early in the game, only four minutes had passed since the beginning. It all started when United lost the ball too easily and Chelsea seized the opportunity to move forward on the right. Malo Gusto sent a cross into the box, which deflected off a United player and went in front of Gallagher. He managed to get the ball under control and sneak it past Andre Onana, the United goalkeeper, scoring the goal. Although it wasn't the hardest shot to stop, it seems like Onana could've done better to prevent it.

Onana, the Manchester United goalkeeper, went the opposite way of the ball.
At the 34th minute, Alejandro Garnacho scored a goal for Manchester United, making it 2-1 against Chelsea.

Instead, he passed it along the defence, straight towards Garnacho who took the lead and scored successfully.
At the 39th minute, there was a goal and now it's tied 2-2 between Chelsea and Manchester United. Bruno Fernandes was the scorer, and what an impressive comeback by his team!

This happened after a fantastic counter-attack by United, which was initiated by Onana. To add to that, the Dalot cross was also excellent.
In the 45th minute and 4 minutes into added time, Gallagher from Chelsea made an incredible shot towards the goalpost but unfortunately hit the post. The play that led to the shot was outstanding, with Palmer delivering a low and precise pass to Gallagher who was positioned in the area.
