Manchester United staged a stirring fightback from three goals down to earn a point against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Jonny Evans’s own goal gave Chelsea an interval lead against the run of play before a stunning volley from Juan Mata 24 seconds after the restart and David Luiz’s deflected header appeared to give Chelsea an unassailable advantage.
United’s hopes were then revived by two penalties awarded by referee Howard Webb – both converted by Wayne Rooney – before substitute Javier Hernandez’s header six minutes from time gave them a point that was greeted in the manner of a victory by their travelling support.
