Chelsea Beat Manchester United 2-0 as Carrick Faces Fresh Pressure

Chelsea defeated Manchester United 2-0 at Stamford Bridge, extending United’s winless run to nine matches in all competitions and increasing pressure on head coach Michael Carrick. Morgan Rogers put Chelsea ahead five minutes after the break after capitalising on a United turnover. United’s situation worsened in the 63rd minute when Lisandro Martínez received a second yellow card for a foul in the box following a VAR review. Cole Palmer converted the resulting penalty to secure the win. United had chances in the first half, including a Matheus Cunha goal ruled out for offside, but could not find a way past Chelsea. The defeat leaves United with seven points from their opening eight league matches and just one point above the relegation zone.
