Chelsea fans in Ghana could not hide their joy as their club team defeated Manchester United by a lone goal courtesy Alvaro Morata in the second half to orchestrate the Red Devils second lose of the season.

Hundreds of football fanatics gathered at the AM & PM pub inside Villagio in Accra to witness the football action from the world best league hosted by Premier League broadcaster, Citi FM.

Morata escaped the attention of United's defenders to find yards of space and beat goalkeeper David de Gea from Cesar Azpilicueta's cross in the 55th minute.

It was another unproductive away day for United and manager Jose Mourinho after a goalless draw at Liverpool and loss to Huddersfield Town, leaving them eight points adrift of leaders Manchester City, who beat Arsenal 3-1 earlier in the day.

United with striker Romelu Lukaku subdued, only mounted serious pressure after Morata scored for Chelsea, with Marcus Rashford coming close twice and substitute Marouane Fellaini forcing a save from Thibaut Courtois.

Supporters of both Chelsea and Manchester United could not hide their joy and frustration when they spoke to Ghanaweb.com shortly after the game.
