What promised to be a great match for this weekend was a damp squib as Manchester United could not hold to the 1 goal lead and had to be happy with a point.
JS Park had given the visitors the lead in the 18 minute after a blooper from the Chelsea golie. United dominated in the first half, but the second half belonged to Chelsea. They kept on piling the pressure on United and the Red Devils succumbed to it. New man Berbatov was a peripheral figure and Ronaldo was introduced in the 55th minute. The game was getting ill tempered in the mid way of second half as lot of United players were cautioned by the ref.
The defending was poor, especially the man to man marking and this gave Kalou space to head in an equiliser in the 80th minute to cancel United's lead. Its so frustrating to see that the champions are made to look so ordinary. Defeat at Liverpool, draw with Villarreal and now another draw at Chelsea. Common champs, pull up your socks and show your devilsih style.
