Manchester United Vs. Chelsea FC: Frank Lampard Goal Gives Blues Hope

Well, may we have a decent game in store after all? Chelsea have been slowly picking up steam all half, but they haven't really looked like the goal was certainly coming at any time. Still, in the 68th minute, the Blues have scored on Manchester United, and this title race isn't quite over yet. Chelsea still have to score two more goals to get back to controlling their own destiny, but with the scoreboard flashing 2-1, this isn't as dire as it once looked.

Ramires created the opportunity, hitting a cross into the center of the box where a group of blue shirts were waiting. Branislav Ivanovic, who has no business being on the pitch at the moment to be completely honest, rose above everyone to get his head to the ball. His header was low and probably on its way to being saved by Edwin van der Sar, but Frank Lampard got his toe to the ball, poking it into the back of the net to give Chelsea an unexpected lifeline.
