**Manchester, England:** Chelsea secured a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Manchester United on Sunday, in a match that saw the Red Devils led by interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy in the absence of sacked manager Erik ten Hag.
Bruno Fernandes put United ahead in the 70th minute, confidently converting a penalty after Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez fouled Rasmus Hojlund. However, the lead was short-lived as Moises Caicedo equalized for Chelsea with a blistering volley in the 78th minute, leaving Andre Onana with no chance.
The draw leaves Chelsea in fourth place with 18 points, while United remain in 13th with 12 points after 10 games.
Ten Hag was dismissed on Monday following a disappointing start to the season, with Ruben Amorim appointed as his successor and set to take over on November 11th. The new manager will have his work cut out for him as he attempts to turn around United’s fortunes.
