In the aftermath of Chelsea's disappointing 2-1 defeat to Manchester United at the Old Trafford on Saturday, goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has issued a heartfelt apology to his team-mates and the Blues' fans. The Spaniard was sent off in the fifth minute of the game after a rash challenge on Bryan Mbeumo just outside the penalty area, which cost the visitors dearly.

Manchester United and Chelsea played out one of the wildest and most exhilarating halves of football in Premier League history at the Old Trafford on Saturday, with both teams having a man sent off in the first 45 minutes. In the process, the English rivals became responsible for setting an unbelievably bizarre Premier League record.

Robert Sanchez made unwanted history with a disastrous early red card against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Saturday evening. The Blues’ goalkeeper endured a shaky start, fumbling simple touches, but matters escalated catastrophically when Bryan Mbeumo surged through on goal.

Chelsea couldn't recover from their goalkeeper's costly early red card as they suffered their first Premier League defeat of the season. The Blues shipped two goals after the Spaniard was dismissed, courtesy of Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro, who was also sent off, and despite Trevoh Chalobah scoring late on, they succumbed to a 2-1 loss, with Cole Palmer having gone off injured.

Chelsea fans have urged the club to sign a new goalkeeper after Robert Sanchez's early red card against Manchester United. The Spaniard brought down the through-on-goal Bryan Mbeumo and was dismissed in the fifth minute at a sodden Old Trafford. That prompted Blues fans to tear into the ex-Brighton stopper, saying he is a "walking, talking liability" for Enzo Maresca's side.
