Manchester United’s struggles continued as Moises Caicedo’s late goal secured Chelsea a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford, marking United’s worst start to a Premier League season since 1986/87.
Bruno Fernandes put United ahead with a penalty 20 minutes from time, but Caicedo’s quick reply ensured Chelsea climbed to fourth place on goal difference.
Interim United manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, set to be replaced by Ruben Amorim, saw encouraging signs after their recent League Cup victory, yet the familiar flaws that cost Erik ten Hag his job were evident.
Despite a competitive performance, United’s attack remains inconsistent, and they now sit 13th with only 12 points from 10 games.
The result keeps pressure on United, while Chelsea, boosted by Caicedo’s improving form, have lost only once in their last nine league games.
