00:00The goalkeeper is Pat Dunne, the left full-back is Tony Dunne,
00:04and at centre-half you see Billy Foulkes playing his 450th game for Manchester United's first team,
00:09a magnificent record by a very, very fine club player indeed.
00:13Let's have a look then at the visiting side this afternoon, Chelsea.
00:17They're at the top of the first division with 48 points,
00:20and of course they beat Spurs on Wednesday night by three goals to one.
00:24And playing for them at centre-forward is Barry Bridges,
00:27who in fact will be getting his first representative honour coming Wednesday
00:30when he plays for the English League against the Scottish League side.
00:33Well, those are the two sides for you then, so let's join them in the centre-circle
00:37as they stand by for the referee's whistle to get the game going.
00:41And it will be Manchester United kicking off in this top-of-the-table game here at Old Trafford.
00:47Manchester United with 43 points, and Chelsea top of the table with 48.
00:53Manchester United have got to win today's game to stay in the Championship Challenge.
00:57The conditions are absolutely perfect.
01:01Both sides, of course, have had hard games in mid-week.
01:04Manchester United with their 5-3 victory over Wolves in the sixth round of the FA Cup,
01:09and Chelsea their 3-1 victory over Spurs,
01:11which has taken them out in front by three or two points from Leeds United.
01:18Chelsea in the all-dark strip, moving into the attack now.
01:23Graham there, inside right.
01:26Coswell, when it's Tony Downward puts it behind the corner kick to Chelsea,
01:31who's popped up momentarily in the left-half position.
01:36Ciaran to Canelli.
01:45And Ciaran hadn't gone, and Canelli thought he was going, but he didn't go.
01:50Rather an ambitious type of pass, really.
01:53Vanetti for Chelsea.
01:55To McCready.
02:04And it's a magnificent goal.
02:08What a magnificent goal.
02:12A truly brilliant goal.
02:15Football there.
02:16My guess.
02:17There he is, number 11.
02:19After just four-minute play then,
02:21Manchester United have gone one goal to nil in the lead.
02:26Sheer brilliant individual effort there by Best.
02:36Ciaran not quite getting it forward to where he'd hoped to get it,
02:39and it's Canelli now for United.
02:43To Charlton.
02:51Heard.
02:52Another handball.
02:56And it very nearly paid off.
02:58That quick flick through there by law,
02:59but it's Temblin now for it.
03:03Chelsea having to check to wait for his own forwards to come up with him.
03:08Chelsea now beginning to come more into the game.
03:14Charlton.
03:15In there like a flash.
03:16And Collins, and he's going away from Collins.
03:19On to Heard.
03:22And a magnificent effort there by Heard,
03:25but equally fine save by Vanetti.
03:43Canelli with the corner kick.
03:54And then making sure that they've got a little bit of time to organise themselves back in the Chelsea defence
04:02there.
04:02Gives a throw-in to United, and it's Stiles to take the throw.
04:12Another throw-in for United.
04:21Brennan.
04:24Stiles getting it in and a Heard in his own side.
04:29a brilliant piece of quick thinking there by styles really that they are congratulating
04:34heard was the scorer there they're congratulating heard 25 minutes gone in the first half and united
04:41goes two goals to know in the lead heard the scorer but one must truly say with a very fine
04:47assist by styles the left half holland's turning it inside to venerables
04:57and styles getting his head to it but harris back to hinton
05:07graham getting it up getting on to it and brennan not taking any chances at all
05:11rightly so just turns it for a corner to chelsea
