United States Man Utd vs Chelsea LIVE: Premier League result and final score as Cristiano Ronaldo equalises
'We have to be realistic' Rangnick on Utd's UCL chances
Manchester United host Chelsea in the Premier League this evening and can move within three points of the top four if they beat Thomas Tuchel’s men. The Red Devils still have an outside chance of finishing in the Champions League spots, but they will need to win most of their remaining fixtures and hope that both Tottenham and Arsenal both drop points. Their defeat to the Gunners last Saturday was a huge setback for United’s top four hopes but they have the chance to immediately close the gap after tonight’s match was rescheduled from the 15th May due to Chelsea’s involvement in the FA Cup final.
Meanwhile, the Blues are looking to get their league form back on track after losing to Arsenal and scraping a win over West Ham in their two most recent league fixtures. Despite being touted as potential title winners before the season started Chelsea have dropped away from the leading two teams, Manchester City and Liverpool, yet hold a solid grip on third place - they are five points ahead of Arsenal having played one game less.
Chelsea will travel to Old Trafford with the knowledge that defender Antonio Rudiger is leaving the club at the end of the season. Rudiger was offered a new contract but was negotiating a higher fee as the club was hit with economic sanctions. Those sanctions meant Chelsea couldn’t increase their offer which is why the German is leaving.
Thomas Tuchel says that Reece James had a great game for Chelsea but the team were left ruing the chances that they missed. He said: “One team deserved to win and that was us. We didn’t take it. It was a very, very good performance but we were not decisive enough. We lacked a bit of determination in the box to win the game.
“It sometimes happens. It’s on us to learn from it. You need to be clinical to get the reward. We have to live with a point but it’s not a fair result.
“We worked so hard to get the lead and suddenly the opponent gets one free shot and scores. Reece James played a very good match and Mason Mount unlucky with his decisions.”

Manchester United’s Nemanja Matic, spoke to Sky Sports after the game saying: “It was an improvement. We played against a very good team. Maybe they had more opportunities than us but 1-1 is a fair result.
“Tonight looked much better than last couple of weeks. We showed that we didn’t give up and showed good character. So it was a good reaction from our team.”
