Read a full match report of the Capital One Cup game between Chelsea and Manchester United at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday Oct 31, 2012.

The promoted teams were Reading, Southampton and West Ham United, returning to the top flight after absences of four, seven and one year respectively. This made them the first club to win the FA Cup and suffer relegation in the same season. [79], The PFA Players' Player of the Year was awarded to Gareth Bale.

Cech denied Nani and Danny Welbeck but then stroked his goal-kick straight out to Oriol Romeu, always a dangerous move as United had been pressing hard, fast and high.

At the bottom end of the table, Queens Park Rangers found themselves as the only team without a league win by the end of November.
Eight minutes into the second half Ramires equalised for Chelsea, and in the 75th minute United's Javier Hernández scored what proved to be the deciding goal via a rebound from a missed Van Persie shot.

A loss to West Bromwich Albion on 17 November was marked by ineffective second half play, as the team was unable to capitalise on a late first half equaliser by Eden Hazard. Chelsea’s pressure finally told when Ramires attempted to wriggle through and was fouled by Wootton.

Chelsea stopped their November slide with a 3–1 win at Sunderland on 8 December on the strength of two goals by Fernando Torres. City prevailed 1–0 in the marathon event with a goal from Carlos Tevez.[24][25].

The football soon dominated the attention.

Some of Hazard’s control and passing was an absolute joy to behold.

After the game, only a single point separated leaders Chelsea from second placed Manchester United. Victor Moses signalled his promise with a series of direct, penetrative runs. Anderson was swiftly on to Romeu, nicking the ball into the path of Ryan Giggs.

Rooney was booked for hauling down Eden Hazard and Mata curled home a superb free-kick. Ferguson ditched the diamond formation he has used recently and gave United natural width in the shape of the returning Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young. If the takeover is delayed, Bates’ programme notes will be required reading. [5] It was the first time the title had been decided in April since Chelsea were the winners in 2005–06.

The 2012–13 season was Manchester City's 111th season of football, 11th consecutive season in the Premier League, and 21st season in the Premier League since it was first created.City began the season as defending champions, having won the league in 2011–12. Manchester City were the defending champions, having won their first Premier League title the previous season.

David Luiz's own goal and Robin van Persie's clinical finish gave Manchester United a two-goal lead early on, but leaders Chelsea fought back superbly to level with goals from Juan Mata and Ramires either side of the interval.

Van Persie had also taken the shot that had rebounded off of Luiz, and thus was ultimately responsible for the Red Devil's one-goal lead at half-time, following a late first half goal by Chelsea's Juan Mata from a free kick. [30] The last team without a league win, Queens Park Rangers, finally got their first win of the season on 15 December.

Van Persie's shot was blocked by the feet of Cech but when Rafael returned the ball into the six-yard area Hernandez turned in from an offside position. Booked: Wootton, Nani, Keane, Giggs. It also needs emphasising that United’s youngsters faced a strong Chelsea side, a starting XI containing the likes of Juan Mata, John Obi Mikel and Petr Cech that was further strengthened with the arrival from the bench of Ramires, Oscar and Eden Hazard. From the free-kick, Luiz almost snapped the bar. Assisted by Anderson delivering one of his best displays for 80 minutes, Manchester United had seemed in control, heading towards victory with seconds of normal time left when Nani erred, gifting the ball to Chelsea when he should have been keeping the ball, not risking it. Key November games included a 2–1 Manchester United win over Arsenal on 3 November,[27] and a dominating 5–0 win by Manchester City over Aston Villa on 17 November marked by a pair of two-goal performances by Carlos Tevez and Sergio Aguero. The Capital One Cup has suddenly become the one for entertainment. Chelsea levelled early in the second half when Gary Cahill powered in a header from a Mata corner. [23] The final week of October featured the longest match in the 20-year history of the Premier League, a 103-minute game between Manchester City and Swansea that featured two serious injuries, one to the groin of Swansea keeper Michel Vorm and the other to the knee of Manchester City back Micah Richards, both of which required stretchers to carry them off. On 22 April 2013, Manchester United won their 13th Premier League title and 20th English title overall by defeating Aston Villa 3–0 at Old Trafford.

Another key match in October included a fixture between Liverpool and Reading, with Liverpool winning 1–0 (with winger Raheem Sterling scoring his first goal for the club) and giving manager Brendan Rodgers his first win over Reading, a team he formerly managed. Leeds’ manager, Neil Warnock, has been critical of Chelsea’s behaviour over the Clattenburg controversy. Chelsea fans were then treated to the bad side of Luiz, the careless side. He lost the ball in midfield, allowing Anderson to release Javier Hernández, who placed his shot unerringly past Cech.

City responded with a Yaya Touré goal in the 60th minute, a goal that followed two saves in rapid succession by United keeper David de Gea.

Replays showed that Hernández was in an offside position, generating a great deal of controversy. [16] Level on points with Manchester City in second place were Swansea City, who registered a 2–2 draw with Sunderland, and West Bromwich Albion, who defeated Everton 2–0.

Yet Ferguson can hardly be criticised for giving youth a chance in the fourth competition on his list of priorities.

[20] Everton and West Bromwich Albion maintained control of second place, with both teams notching a win in week five, though a draw by the Baggies in week six would drop them back to fifth place, which they would share with Tottenham Hotspur following their surprise 3–2 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford.

The small-talk in the boardroom could be lively if Abramovich travels.

Referee: L Mason (Lancashire).

A United mistake let Chelsea back in.
