Gary Neville compared the tactics used by Chelsea and Manchester United to Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte, calling the match 'negative.'
Both Graham Potter and Erik ten Hag chose to overload the midfield to seize more control rather than going out for a win and saw a scrappy game only sparked by late drama with two late goals.
Chelsea blinked first after just half an hour, choosing to remove Marc Cucurella for Mateo Kovacic in order to get a grip on the match. Ten Hag responded after half time with Fred and McTominay both coming on, leaving the visitors without a recognised striker.
