Manchester United and Chelsea played out a goalless draw at Old Trafford in a game that was bereft of quality and chances. Neither side came into the contest with any real form and had plenty of questions to answer regarding their defensive capabilities.

In a way then a clean sheet for both managers will be seen as a plus, but going forward they will have expected more.

Edinson Cavani introduced himself to United fans with a second-half cameo but he was unable to light up what was a forgettable game.

Marcus Rashford had a first-half chance that was well saved by Edouard Mendy.

But in the second period neither goalkeeper made a save of note as both team’s seemed content to take a point.
