Man Utd 1 Chelsea 1: Moises Caicedo rocket moves Blues above Arsenal into fourth with hosts stuck in 13th

MOISES CAICEDO’s moment of magic denied Ruud van Nistelrooy a dream first Premier League win in temporary charge of Man Utd.

The Chelsea midfielder cancelled out Bruno Fernandes’ penalty with a sumptuous volley in the second half at Old Trafford.

Marcus Rashford came closest in a cagey first half, striking the crossbar with a volley right on the whistle.

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher called out the United crowd for failing to raise the decibel levels.

And the Red Devils appeared to get the message, coming out with renewed vigour after the break.

It was a rush of blood from Chelsea keeper Robert Sanchez that swung the game in the host’s favour.

Sanchez needlessly charged out as Rasmus Hojlund bore down on goal, giving referee Rob Jones an easy decision as he clipped the Danish forward on the ankle.

Fernandes made no mistake from the spot, sending the Blues keeper the wrong way.

But the Blues hit back just five minutes later, Caicedo bagging his first of the season.

The former Bright man set himself nicely from the edge of the area, before volleying hard into the bottom corner.

Both teams pushed for a winner as Van Nistelrooy urged his side forward, with Garnacho almost winning it in the closing stages.

But they were forced to settle for a deserved point under the lights.
