Read Time:31 Second
Romelu Lukaku scored one and assisted another as Manchester United beat Chelsea 2-1 in a crucial clash in the top-four race at Old Trafford this afternoon.
The Belgian proved that he can be a big-game player by cancelling out Willian‘s first-half opener within seven minutes, and later providing Jesse Lingard with the winner.
With the result, United regain second place from Liverpool and open up a six-point gap back to Chelsea in fifth.
Alvaro Morata was the match-winner in the reverse fixture at Stamford Bridge in November and came within inches of opening the scoring on four minutes.
