    Ben: It's been an extremely topsy-turvy way of doing it, but it looks like United may well finish third in the table after all! After so many scoring struggles of late, it's nice to see a bit of gloss on the scoreline. Chelsea could potentially fall to 14th by the season's end. But boy, could it have been a lot closer tonight...

    This must be horrible for Frank Lampard. He's a Chelsea legend and will always be, but it's been a painful few months for him since he returned to the club after Graham Potter's sacking.

    Alejandro Garnacho has another chance for his trademark late goal. He shoots across goal, but it is an excellent save by a leg of Kepa Arrizabalaga.

    Joao Felix

    No clean sheet for David de Gea tonight. Chelsea lead a four-on-two break with Joao Felix leading the charge. He progresses all the way to the edge of the penalty area and arrows a low shot into the bottom corner.

    Lovely goal.

    Bruno Fernandes gets a great reception from the United fans and is replaced by Scott McTominay for the last five minutes plus change.

    Alejandro Garnacho has a real habit of a late goal - great for him, not so great for a late rewrite for a journalist - and nearly gets another one.

    His shot takes a deflection and loops up on to the bar. Chelsea falling apart here.

    A triple change for Chelsea, looking to rescue a little bit of pride.

    David Fofana,Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Hakim Ziyech are all on, with Noni Madueke, Carney Chukwuemeka and Conor Gallagher all coming off.

    It just fell right into his path. It's that square pass we've seen so many times. Fernandes nicked in, snuck it into Rashford.

    Frank Lampard must be thinking 'what does he need to do'.

    Victor Lindelof is not happy with Christian Pulisic's challenge on David de Gea as the goalkeeper jumped for the ball.

    A bit more pushing and shouting from all involved, but no cards needed this time.

    Marcus Rashford

    That's 30 for the season for Marcus Rashford. It's a horror show from Wesley Fofana, who tries to play a pass across goal to Trevoh Chalobah.

    Bruno Fernandes scored the third and gets an assist for the fourth. He nips in, gives it to Marcus Rashford, who shows great skill to get past a desperate Fofana.

    Rashford's shot is parried by Kepa Arrizabalaga with the England striker getting to the rebound first for number four.

    Another humiliating evening for Chelsea and Frank Lampard.

    David de Gea already has the Golden Glove award for most clean sheets and is on course for another one, which would be his 18th of the season.

    He dashes off his line quickly to deny Conor Gallagher from getting on the end of a through ball.

    Fair play to the Chelsea fans.

    They have kept backing their side tonight despite the disastrous time they have endured.

    The away section is full, for what can't have been a very appealing Thursday night trip north.

    They retain their sense of humour too, singing: "You're nothing special, we lose every week."

    Some silliness after the penalty with Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez getting a yellow card, with Tyrell Malacia of United also getting a booking following a bit of nonsense pushing from both sides.

    It doesn't get cooler than that. He was the one that created the nutmeg around Fofana.

    That is really cool, just waiting for the goalkeeper to move and rolling it into the right-hand side. So slow and walked after like it was meant to be. An amazing penalty.

    Fred and Alejandro Garnacho come on, with Anthony Martial and Christian Eriksen off for the home side.

    Both replaced men can be happy with their evening's work, Eriksen leaving with an assist, Martial with a goal.
