Diego Costa's injury-time equaliser denied Manchester United a win on Sunday,leaving the midfielder annoyed at their inability to see the game out
Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata revealed his frustration after his side's 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Jesse Lingard gave United the lead on 61 minutes but Diego Costa's injury-time equaliser meant Louis van Gaal's side had to settle for a point.
"We played very good football," Mata told Sky Sports.
"Coming here to Chelsea isn’t easy, but particularly in the first 30 minutes and in the second half we played well – we had it so close.
"But Chelsea were always pushing and they scored a late goal and we didn’t have any time to get another goal. It’s frustrating."
Despite his annoyance, Mata said he was happy with United's recent form.
"When you win and when you play good football, confidence grows," he said. "I think we're showing now that we can play a high level of football and can play attractive, offensive football.
"That's what we're trying to do – that's what the fans want to see, so we try our best in every game. I think the last three or four games we've played really well."
