David de Gea's howler gave Chelsea the advantage in the race for the top four after a 1-1 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford on Super Sunday.


United came out brightest and took the lead through Juan Mata's close-range finish after a fine team move (11), but De Gea's week went from bad to worse as he fumbled Antonio Rudiger's long-range shot into Marcos Alonso's path, allowing the defender to squeeze home (44).

The result means that with two games to play, Chelsea sit fourth, two points clear of Arsenal in fifth and three clear of United in sixth.
