Handball controversy proves pivotal as Chelsea, Man Utd share spoils Chelsea and Man Utd were made to settle for a point apiece in a contest that hinged on a controversial early denial of a penalty. Chelsea started the brighter of the two sides, but it was Man Utd who were almost the recipient of a penalty after VAR’s first major involvement in the match. Edouard Mendy punched a Marcus Rashford free-kick back into play. Callum Hudson-Odoi and Mason Greenwood tussled for the ball, with replays appearing to suggest the ball had struck the Blues man’s hand while in an unnatural position. The referee consulted his pitch side monitor but stuck with his original decision to deny Man Utd a spot kick. Hudson-Odoi continued to look dangerous marauding down the right and was causing havoc in the Man Utd area with early service into Olivier Giroud. There was a concerning moment for both sides after the half-hour mark when Giroud and Rashford both collided with inanimate objects in full flow. Giroud clattered the post after narrowly failing to make contact with a diving header, while Rashford took a tumble over the advertising hoardings at the other end. CHELSEA GO CLOSE! Olivier Giroud is inches away from getting on the end of Callum Hudson-Odoi's tempting cross.

Chelsea almost broke the deadlock soon after the interval after a brilliant raid down the left from Ben Chilwell.
