Jose Mourinho was left seething after a decision to send off Branislav Ivanovic led to Chelsea conceding a last minute equaliser at Manchester United.
The Blues had the lead thanks to a Didier Drogba header but Ivanovic’s foul on Angel di Maria saw the defender sent off for two bookable offences, and from the stoppage time free-kick, RVP slammed the ball home.
The result left Chelsea with a four point gap at the top of the Barclay’s Premier League and Mourinho said afterwards : ‘We have a little space now for our mistakes… or for referees’ mistakes.
‘If I say what is in my heart, I will get in trouble. I prefer not to talk about this (Ivanovic incident), we had many things go against us, the result was not so good but acceptable.
‘I’m very happy my team played a fantastic game, it’s not easy to play against a Man United team that plays very compact and on the counter attack.
‘We could score a couple more goals, especially the Hazard one. I am proud of my players though.
‘He was not even able to train and play for 90 minutes like he did today, so I was happy with his performance. He (Drogba) has scored so many goals like this.’
