Manchester United went into this game with the target of them getting a win so as to revive their Champions League hope, but finishing among the top four now seems to be over.

Who are the goalscorers between Man United and Chelsea?

Chelsea scored the first goal at Old Trafford through Marcos Alonso in the 60th minute, but two minutes later, Cristiano Ronaldo restored parity for the home team.

Efforts by Manchester United players to get the winner against Chelsea were futile as goalkeeper Mendy denied them from getting the victory.

According to the information Cristiano Ronaldo provided on his Twitter page, the Portuguese thanked the fans for their show of solidarity.

Ikpeba tells Man United chiefs to sell Ronaldo, blames them for resigning the Portuguese

Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how Victor Ikpeba who is a Super Eagles legend blamed those in charge of Premier League giants Man United for their decision to resign Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Nigerian who was one of the finest African forwards during his active playing time made it clear that Manchester United made a mistake bringing Ronaldo back to Old Trafford.

He sees Ronaldo's presence as a distraction at Manchester United claiming that the five-time Ballon d'Or winner should have gone to Manchester City.

Yes, the Citizens were linked with Cristiano Ronaldo after leaving Juventus, but Manchester United hijacked the deal at the death and the Portuguese returned to Old Trafford.

Victor Ikpeba is of the opinion that Cristiano Ronaldo should be leaving Manchester United at the end of the season.
