Jose Mourinho Claims 2-2 Draw Is 'Awful' for Man Utd But 'Phenomenal' for Chelsea

Jose Mourinho claims Manchester United's dramatic 2-2 draw with Chelsea was a 'phenomenal' result for the Blues but 'awful' for his side.

United were on the cusp of a second straight league victory after an Anthony Martial brace cancelled out Antonio Rüdiger's opener, before Ross Barkley found the back of the net in the last minute of the clash at Stamford Bridge.

Despite being forced to share the spoils, Mourinho was clear in identifying who he thought was the best team on the day.

"The best team on the pitch, and if you say before the match one point at Stamford Bridge is always a good result because it's always difficult for teams to win here but after the game the way the game was is an awful result for us and a phenomenal result for them," Mourinho told Sky Sports.
