Chelsea goalkeeper, Robert Sanchez, has taken responsibility for their 2-1 defeat at Manchester United in the Premier League on Saturday.

Sanchez was shown a straight red card for a last-man tackle on Bryan Mbeumo in the 4th minute.

Referee Peter Bankes did not hesitate to send the Spaniard off, after he flew out of his area to challenge Mbeumo.

The sending off saw Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca make three early changes, with United scoring twice to take a 2-0 lead.

Trevoh Chalobah headed in a late goal, but it ended up being a mere consolation.

Sanchez wrote on Instagram after the match: “On me today guys, big sorry for that, team put a massive effort on the second half but couldn’t get there.”
