The encounter began ominously for United as Conor Gallagher and Cole Palmer swiftly propelled Chelsea to a 2-0 lead within the first 19 minutes. However, Erik ten Hag's side exhibited resilience, clawing their way back into contention by halftime, courtesy of goals from <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/comeback-man-utd-erik-ten-hag-level-chelsea-moises-caicedo-alejandro-garnacho-goal-bruno-fernandes/blt2c374e3e6fc06038" target="_blank">Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes</a>. The skipper further ignited hope among United fans by securing the lead midway through the second half. But <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-player-ratings-vs-chelsea-alejandro-garnacho-antony/blt2a5a912c6bd9d4a5" target="_blank">Chelsea delivered a devastating blow </a>with two injury-time goals, through Palmer to seal a remarkable turnaround and leave United stunned.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Speaking to TNT Sports in the aftermath of the match, Fernandes said: "We had the game in our hands and we gave it away. It's frustrating. It's difficult to take. We had good control in the last few minutes. But they got two chances and scored two goals. From the corner, we have to be much quicker. We knew beforehand they take corners and throw-ins quickly."In the last games, we've conceded too many shots. It's about defending your box. It's a big game (on Sunday against Liverpool). I don't need to say anything (to my teammates). If I need to say anything it's a problem because this is a massive club."

WHAT BRUNO FERNANDES SAID

United's defensive vulnerabilities were once again laid bare, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/brilliant-man-utd-boss-erik-ten-hag-gives-honest-reaction-to-red-devils-throwing-away-chelsea-lead-in-second-half-stoppage-time/bltbc7bef485806737c" target="_blank">Chelsea amassing an astonishing 28 shots</a> on goal. Erik ten Hag's men have now conceded 225 shots on goal since the turn of the year - the highest in the competition.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

It was a historic moment in the competition's history as no team had ever won a match in the 101st minute in the Premier League before Chelsea. Whereas, United became the first team to lose a match despite leading until the 99th minute.

DID YOU KNOW?

The match against Liverpool on Sunday looms at a critical juncture for United, who must rally and regroup as quickly as possible to keep their European dreams alive for next season. They are currently sixth in the table, nine points behind Tottenham, with eight matchdays remaining.
