Harry Maguire sends message to Casemiro after Manchester United draw 1-1 with Chelsea

Manchester United's Harry Maguire celebrated Casemiro's goal against Chelsea with a simple message on social media.

Chelsea thought they had won the game on Saturday night when awarded a penalty with five minutes remaining, which Jorginho converted from the spot, but Casemiro dramatically scored a header in stoppage time to ensure the points were shared.

Although Maguire is currently working to return from a hamstring injury, he was still supporting his teammates at Stamford Bridge by watching the match from his home and he took to Instagram after the game to congratulate Casemiro for his goal.

Maguire has been injured since September, but the Manchester Evening News recently revealed that the centre-back had been a dressing room presence for United's Premier League matches against Manchester City and Everton.

The club captain had visited the dressing room during those games, despite his lack of fitness, and a source said Maguire had been "in the thick of it" during those appearances, which aren't required for a player who is sidelined with injury.

Maguire took part in light training this week and he could play against FC Sheriff on Thursday.
