Security staff had to get involved to restore order, though the  two managers shook hands after an eventful conclusion.    An early kick-off in late October sunshine, combined with a return to  domestic duties after an international break, perhaps unsurprisingly led to a  slow start before the game's opening goal in the 21st minute.   Rudiger gave Paul Pogba the slip to meet Willian's outswinging corner from  the right, planting the ball low beyond visiting goalkeeper David de Gea for his  first goal of 2018.   However, Mourinho’s half-time words seemingly transformed United. With the  defensive shackles removed after barely venturing out of their own half before  the break, they struck twice in an 18-minute spell to take the lead.   Martial capitalised on a slice of good fortune – Ashley Young’s shot taking  two deflections to break into his path – to fire in an equaliser, while a heavy  touch inadvertently set him up to bend an effort beyond Cesar Azpilicueta's  attempted block and put Mourinho on course for a famous triumph.   Yet the Portuguese was denied on his old stomping ground right at the death.  David Luiz headed Pedro’s cross against the post and Rudiger hit the rebound  straight at De Gea, though it turned out to be third time lucky for the Blues  when Barkley hammered his attempt into the net.</blockquote>
