Caicedo's late goal dampens Man United's mood in 1-1 draw with Chelsea

Chelsea are currently in fourth place in the table with 18 points, while Manchester United, who had interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy overseeing the team, are currently sitting in 13th place with 12 points after playing 10 games.

United’s captain Fernandes scored from the spot in the 70th minute after Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez caught Rasmus Hojlund’s foot when diving for the ball. Fernandes sent Sanchez the wrong way, prompting a delighted Van Nistelrooy to leap in the air in celebration.

But the mood in Old Trafford swiftly shifted when Casemiro failed to fully clear Chelsea’s corner, leaving Caicedo to fire a low volley that Andre Onana managed to just get a hand on, though he could not stop it sailing into the bottom corner.

Ten Hag was sacked on Nov 4 with United languishing in 14th in the Premier League. Ruben Amorim was named as his replacement on Friday and will arrive at the club on Nov 11.
