End of 2nd Half
90+5'
Nothing from the corner, and that's it for the match, full time. Chelsea's earlier flurry in the second half earned them the win, and United had little for the remaining part of the game to make the difference. Chelsea stay fourth, but they are just a point behind United and Spurs, who both trail Manchester City by eight points.
90+4'
Rashford's free kick is struck well, but it's deflected off the wall and out for a corner on the left. Not long to go now.
90+3'
Willian slides in Morata behind the defence, and as he's about to turn his man, he slips and De Gea can collect. United hit back up the other end, and Matic is brought down 25 yards out. Rashford is likely to take the last shot of the game.
90+1'
There will be four minutes of added time.

Fellaini chests the ball down, and hooks a shot at goal that Courtois does brilliantly to tip away.
88'
Chelsea sit back, waiting. Courtois does well to claim the ball from Lukaku as he backs into him. They're running out of time.
87'
Rashford volley a shot from the edge of the box after Herrera's cross is headed out, and it flies inches wide off a deflection from Martrial. Willian is on for Hazard.

85'
Five minutes left. Chelsea have a throw on the right, and should start trying to run the game down - the temptation is that United are just so bad in defence.
84'
Good work from Martial and Matic allows Rashford the chance to cross form the edge of the box, but it's a few feet too far ahead of Fellaini's run at the back post.
82'
Herrera brings down Hazard with a challenge from behind. He could well be off, but the referee allows a marginal decision to go United's way. Cahill gets the ball from the free kick but can only send the ball straight to De Gea - they look likely to get another at this point.
81'
Smalling goes through the back of Morata on the halfway line, and escapes a booking. Morata and Hazard have been clattered throughout the second half, to no effect for the away team.
79'
Lingard is on for Young, Fabregas is off for Drinkwater.

Hazard sizes up Matic, makes room for a shot on the edge of the box, and he slaps a shot at goal that De Gea palms away with a dive to his right.

Fellaini loses the ball carelessly in midfield to Bakayoko. He strides towards goal and beats Smalling, only to send a shot wide of the near post.
74'
Rashford concedes an obvious foul near Chelsea's box on Bakayoko, giving them a chance to run down the clock a tad, and hoof it long.
73'
About 20 minutes left, give or take, for United to find an equaliser or for Chelsea to kill this one off early.
72'
Fellaini is given a yellow for aiming a sly elbow into Morata's mush. Like Ricard Carvalho all over again.

71'
Rashford wins a corner on the left. He will be the one to take it, and he sends in another poor one to the near post. Out for another. His second comes to Smalling, just under the bar, and he is penalised for clambering all over Courtois. He really is of no use at both ends of the pitch.
69'
The corner is headed out to Herrera and his sliced shot comes to Martial, who can only stick out a leg and help it out of play.
68'
Big Fell heads a cross down for Rashford, and he squeezes off a shot which is deflected for a corner on the right.
