Dull "Man Utd" and "Chelsea" match ended goalless (VIDEO) © EuroFootball.com

On Monday evening, a central match of the II round was played at Manchester's "Old Trafford" stadium.

The mortal enemies tested their strength: the hosts "Manchester United" and the guests from London, the footballers of "Chelsea".

From the very beginning of the match, the "Red Devils" tried to impose their game rhythm and take the initiative, while Jose Mourinho chose a cautious counterattack tactic.

The game was not very attractive to the eye - few opportunities were created, and the fiercest battle took place in the middle of the field.

After 90 minutes, referee Mike Deano's whistle confirmed the defensive triumph: neither team was able to score goals, so they shared a point.
