Chelsea 3-3 Man Utd, February 2012

Earlier in 2012, it had been Manchester United staging a comeback at Stamford Bridge, fighting from three goals down to earn a valuable point in their pursuit of league leaders Manchester City.
An Evans own goal had given the Blues a first-half advantage and a stunning volley from Mata 24 seconds after the re-start, followed by a Luiz header five minutes later, seemed to all but assure Chelsea of three points.
However, two Wayne Rooney penalties and a Hernandez header shared the spoils – much to Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas’ frustration. The Portuguese had particular issue with Howard Webb’s officiating: “The first one is an obvious penalty, nothing to say, but the second one is very, very dubious," said Villas-Boas, referring to Ivanovic’s collision with Danny Welbeck.
