Not the start Chelsea fans wanted after the injury of Alonso
Well, shit start.

Herrera’s brilliant assist played a major part in that goal

Beautiful ball by Herrera.
— Nilenth Selvaraja (@Nilenth) April 16, 2017
There were accusations that there was a handball incident before the goal
How did the ref not see that?! ? #mufc

Arsenal fan even started some banter about title predictions after that 7th minute goal. Yep he meant the white part of North London. 😛
Title is coming to North London. Coys

Nothing much happened after that in the 1st half apart from the antics of Diego Costa. Man Utd fans weren’t impressed
David Costa is a disgrace for football as a sport.
— Sameera Malinda (@sameera79) April 16, 2017
@ImSutha Herrera does professional fouls. Costa does professional acting in addition to fouls. 😀
— Sameera Malinda (@sameera79) April 16, 2017
@sameera79 Herrera is just better at it. ?

Not a great day to be a Chelsea fan
Bad luck from the start of the day, just one of those days #CFC
— #Symbelmynë (@Namith_117) April 16, 2017
Courtois injured, Alonso injured, ref misses hand ball for first goal, massive deflection on second goal, not our day #CFC
— #Symbelmynë (@Namith_117) April 16, 2017
But some Chelsea fans haven’t lost hope yet.
Fabregas is coming on. Work that magic in Cesc.
— Pasan Weerasinghe (@Portellofanatic) April 16, 2017
Some neutral fans were enjoying the result too
C’mon United make the title race interesting!
— Fazmin Hussain (@Fazminator) April 16, 2017
Then it was end to end stuff with both sides not utilizing their chances. Bit of banter from United fans as they were edging towards victory

HT: 2-0 defeat at OT. Can’t lose to a 6th placed team if you want to win the league. Cushion lead gone. Pull up the socks and play for all.
— R.Arunothayan (@Me_ArunR) April 16, 2017
Outplayed. Outnumbered. Man Utd deserved the win. Tottenham deserved the title race. Chelsea boys have to give a good look at the table.
— R.Arunothayan (@Me_ArunR) April 16, 2017

Brilliant effort by everyone on the pitch today ❤️#GGMu #MUFC #MUNCHE— Suhan (@SathushkaS) April 16, 2017

We look so lost when one of our wingbacks don’t play. Cause for concern, our entire system goes to heck in a hand basket #CFC
— #Symbelmynë (@Namith_117) April 16, 2017
We just didn’t turn up, can’t afford this no more @ChelseaFC
