Manchester United Rallies With Three Goals but Drops Two Behind in Title Race Kerim Okten/European Pressphoto Agency Manchester United's Javier Hernández (14) split two defenders and headed the tying goal past Petr Cech in the 84th minute. Javier Hernández completed Manchester United's comeback from a three-goal deficit at Chelsea on Sunday with a late header that salvaged a 3-3 tie and left the defending champions two points off the Premier League lead. After storming to a 3-0 lead by the 50th minute, Chelsea collapsed at home by conceding two penalties that Wayne Rooney converted and then allowing Hernández to tie it in the 84th. But despite the stirring comeback, United dropped behind the Premier League leader Manchester City, which beat Fulham on Saturday. "It's two points lost," Rooney said. We understand that, but after being 3-0 down - the City players at home must have liked that - we enjoyed the way we fought back. United inadvertently gave Chelsea the lead when Jonny Evans turned the ball into his own net in the first half, and Juan Mata and David Luiz added goals just after halftime. The tie cost fourth-place Chelsea valuable points in the standings, too. Chelsea is only a point ahead of Newcastle, which beat Aston Villa, 2-1, on Sunday after a debut goal from Papiss Demba Cissé. Third-place Tottenham plays Monday at Liverpool, with Luis Suarez set to return for the hosts after serving an eight-match suspension for racial verbal abuse against United defender Patrice Evra in a game earlier this season. The specter of racism also loomed large at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. Some Chelsea fans jeered every touch of the ball by United defender Rio Ferdinand, whose brother, Queens Park Rangers defender Anton Ferdinand, accused the Chelsea captain John Terry of verbal racial abuse in October. Terry, who was sidelined Sunday because of an injury, is set to face trial on those charges later this year. "You don't expect opposing fans to cheer your players," Chelsea Manager Andre Villas-Boas said. This is a normal situation in the Premiership. Rio Ferdinand responded later on Twitter to the booing, saying the booing inspired him, calling it "like fuel to me." TIES FOR JUVENTUS AND MILAN Juventus and A.C. Milan each played to scoreless draws as the top of Serie A remained unchanged, but the Milan standout Zlatan Ibrahimovic was sent off for hitting an opponent and could face a multigame ban. In the 64th minute of Milan's match with Napoli, Ibrahimovic slapped his right hand on the side of Salvatore Aronica's face. Ibrahimovic will miss a difficult game at Udinese next weekend and, if he is suspended for up to three matches, will also miss a critical match with Juventus on Feb. 25. "It wasn't violent, so I don't think Ibrahimovic will get more than two matches," the A.C. Milan vice president Adriano Galliani said. Juventus, which tied Siena, leads Milan by one point and has a game in hand. Third-place Udinese lost, 3-2, at Fiorentina, and Roma routed Inter Milan, 4-0, in a match postponed for 24 hours because of a rare snowstorm in the capital. Roma's 20-year-old striker Fabio Borini scored twice, and Juan and Bojan Krkic also found the net. RANGERS OUT OF SCOTTISH CUP Rangers was knocked out of the Scottish Cup by Dundee United with a 2-0 loss that left the Glasgow side with only the league title to play for this season. Rangers trails Celtic in the Scottish Premier League, having already exited the Champions League, the Europa League and the League Cup. MALI AND GHANA ADVANCE Mali beat the co-host Gabon, 5-4, in a penalty-kick shootout, and Ghana won by 2-1 in extra time on a blunder by Tunisia's goalkeeper during quarterfinals at the African Cup of Nations in Libreville, Gabon. With the last of the quarterfinals complete, the semifinal matchups are set: Mali will face the tournament favorite, Ivory Coast, and Ghana will play Zambia.
