    What's the story

    Scott McTominay scored a brace as Manchester United beat arch-rivals Chelsea 2-1 on matchday 15 of the Premier League 2023-24 season.

    Bruno Fernandes missed an early penalty for the hosts before McTominay found the net.

    New Chelsea recruit Cole Palmer equalized for the Blues ahead of half-time. In the second half, McTominay scored what was the winner in the 69th minute.

    Here's more.

    McTominay

    McTominay's best goals return in a single PL season

    McTominay's brace saw him race to five Premier League goals this season. It's his most in a single Premier League campaign for the Red Devils.

    McTominay scored four goals each in the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons respectively.

    In 156 Premier League games, McTominay now owns 17 goals. Overall, he has 25 goals for Manchester United in 225 appearances.

    Information

    As per Opta, Manchester United had an xG of 2.78 in the first half against Chelsea. This is the most any side has accumulated in the first half of a Premier League game this season. United had 18 efforts on Chelsea's goal in that half.

    Information

    Fernandes misses his fourth league penalty

    Fernandes missed just his fourth league penalty, scoring 16. As per Squawka, only two goalkeepers have saved Fernandes's penalty in the Premier League: Karl Darlow and Robert Sanchez.

    MUNCHE

    Man United get the job done against Chelsea

    In what was a dominant display from Erik ten Hag's men, Fernandes missed an early chance to give his side the lead.

    In the 19th minute, McTominay shot the ball past Sanchez after a rebound came his way.

    Both sides missed presentable chances thereafter before Palmer's brilliant placement after delaying his shot saw Chelsea level.

    Alejandro Garnacho's cross helped McTominay score the second.
