Manchester United dominated Chelsea "from start to finish" in their 1-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge, claims captain Wayne Rooney.

Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney believes that his side will take confidence from their performance despite losing 1-0 to Chelsea.

Eden Hazard won the match for the Blues with a goal in the 38th minute, but Rooney insists that his side dominated the match.

He told MUTV: "I thought it [the performance] was excellent, we dominated from start to finish. We created some good chances, but unfortunately didn't take any of them. I felt that if we got a goal, even with five minutes to go, we would have gone on to win.

"I think we can take great confidence from this result as I've rarely seen a team come to Stamford Bridge and dominate so much, all that was missing was a goal.

"On another day we could have scored two or three goals, but it wasn't to be today. We have to move on now and look forward to facing Everton next weekend."

United now trail league leaders Chelsea by 11 points with only five games left to play.
