Chelsea 3-3 Manchester United

Manchester United produced a stunning fightback as they hit back from 3-0 down to draw with Chelsea.
Andre Villas-Boas's side led 1-0 at half time thanks to a scrappy own goal from Jonny Evans.
They made a blistering start to the second period with Juan Mata's superb volley doubling the lead, then David Luiz's header finding the net via Rio Ferdinand.
But Wayne Rooney held his nerve to score two penalties - for fouls on Patrice Evra and Danny Welbeck respectively - and then Javier Hernandez had the final dramatic say as he headed in Ryan Giggs' cross with six minutes to go.
