MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez was sent off after five minutes against Manchester United in the Premier League on Saturday.
Sanchez was shown a straight red card for bringing down Bryan Mbeumo when the United forward was running through on goal.
Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca responded by making a double substitution at Old Trafford.
Backup keeper Filip Jorgensen replaced Estevao and defender Tosin Adarabioyo came on for another forward, Pedro Neto.
The Premier League said Sanchez was sent off for denying Mbeumo a goal-scoring opportunity.
United took the lead shortly after through Bruno Fernandes in the 14th minute.
