Chelsea 4-3 Manchester United: How 'very special' drama unfolded at Stamford Bridge

No team has ever won a Premier League match later than this. No team has ever been leading at such an advanced stage, only to lose the game.

Drama unfolded in historic proportions on Thursday as Chelsea beat Manchester United 4-3, Cole Palmer scoring twice deep into stoppage time to seal a remarkable win.

Palmer had put Chelsea 2-0 up inside 20 minutes from the penalty spot following Conor Gallagher's opener - only for Manchester United to come from behind.

Goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes had United level by half-time, and Garnacho grabbed a second on 67 minutes to put the visitors in front at Stamford Bridge.
