It remains goalless between Manchester United and Chelsea.
There’s not a lot happening in the pouring rain but we’ll still have plenty of moments to digest at half-time. Follow @StrettyNews on Twitter.
Both sides are struggling to create big chances and I wouldn’t be surprised if the game ended as a scoreless draw. The outcome should be tight either way.
One talking point was Bruno Fernandes clashing with Chelsea midfielder Jorginho in the middle of the park. He gave a very gentle slap on the back of his head during the first half, which is a risky move in today’s game.
Bruno Fernandes with a nice slap to the back of Jorginho’s head …
VAR is this mans best friend #MUNCHE

The response below from a Chelsea fan made us laugh!
@FA @premierleague Bruno Fernandes has just assaulted Jorginho. Your VAR referees should look into whether that should be a red card.

Especially in this hyper-sensitive world where VAR makes bizarre decisions on a weekly basis.
Fernandes would have been in trouble had Jorginho made a meal of the situation by going down holding his face.
Thankfully there was none of that nonsense.
