Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal was enough to ensure a 1-1 draw for Man United against Chelsea in a Premier League game at Old Trafford on Thursday night.
Ronaldo scored the equaliser on 62 minutes to cancel Marcos Alonso’s volley in the opener.
The goal was Ronaldo’s 17th goal of the season for Manchester United, and it earned his side a point from the encounter.
This is a boost for United after they suffered a defeat against Arsenal in their last game.
Chelsea had several superb chances to score but goalkeeper David de Gea frustrated the visitors before the deadlock was broken.
Ronaldo could have secured all three points for the hosts but his effort from a difficult angle was saved by Edouard Mendy.
Manchester United are sixth, five points behind Arsenal in fourth but having played two games more. Chelsea are third in the table.
