MANCHESTER, England -- Manchester United eased the pressure on coach Ruben Amorim with a tense 2-1 win against Chelsea at Old Trafford on Saturday after both sides were reduced ten players following first-half red cards.
Goals from Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro put United 2-0 up before halftime after Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sánchez was sent off in the fifth minute for a foul on Bryan Mbeumo. But with Casemiro also sent off by referee Peter Bankes for two first-half yellow cards, United endured a nervy second half, especially when Trevoh Chalobah scored for Chelsea in the 80th minute.
