The best first 45 minutes of a game I’ve seen in a long, long time.
Liverpool exceptionally lucky to end the half with 11 men.

Best 45 minutes of football I have seen in long time.
Chelsea would be winning if they had a striker who could actually score.
21 top class players and also James Milner. What a show.
Havertz really should've done better there
Brilliant half. Hope it carries on like this!
I'll be honest, that Kovacic goal looked harder to pull off than the Scholes' one.
Cracker of a game. Good result if it stays this way but I think Chelsea will go on and win it.
Good to see that all it needed for that comeback was for me to say how pony Chelsea are and how United will catch em 
Chalobah would like to have a word
We need to attack Trent’s side more often. He is absolutely horrendous defensively.
I think they will implode again.
Rüdiger needs to get some credit for the 2:2, great awareness how he got to the ball before Salah (?) and not only cleared it but passed it to Kante
Nah.
Even when they done us 5-0 we had some opportunities to score.
TAA great going forward. Useless in defence though.
The BDL says hello.
What a fecking game.
Both teams have lost all semblance of match control. They’re lucky it’s against another big name side or this headless play would be talked about more
I think it's one of the great PL finishes honestly. If the VAR had ruled it out there would have been riots.
You think he's able to sit?
He is very intimidating in these 50-50s. I think Salah got scared
Our midfield is dreadful unless Thiago and Fabinho play together. That Kovacic goal was ridiculous. Such good technique when he’s moving backwards as well.
Meh I thought our game with Norwich was more exciting lolz
This game is chaos. Doesn't suit Havertz, he looks lost.
Ah was gutted Chelsea didn’t score at the end there
Imagine this being your takeaway from that half. Just enjoy it.
It’s like watching Maguire playing in both sides
They do - unfortunately he has the loyalty of a hooker, the skin of a jellyfish and the footwork of a clown.
Or wanted to be there
That Kovacic goal is one of the all-time great PL goals. He's walking backwards as he hits it, spectacular technique.
The question is does he wear a baseball cap?
Pointing of a young god, though
Two of the three best teams in the league however some truly woeful defending making it a decent watch for the neutrals.
and at least 2 goal of the season candidates
It is almost impossible for him to backpedal like that, control the shot and get the requisite power on it.
Goal of the season already.
When you are running onto a volley it is so much easier, that was an absolutely incredible goal
They really should try to sell Lukaku and Havertz or Werner and go all in for Haaland. He would be perfect for them.
Unreal first half. Liverpool's big games deliver quite often.
He’s more occupied about who opened the Chamber of Secrets.
Just saw the Mane elbow. That’s a red card all day, he knows he’s there, and it’s completely reckless. If a united player does that and gets a red I have no complaints
