Pietersen is a known Chelsea fan and has been witnessed cheering for the Premier League club at various occasions both online and from the ground.
Manchester United were in need of a fast start to the campaign to erase memories of a terrible end to last season and got it.
Rashford's early penalty opened the scoring against the run of play, but three goals in 16 second-half minutes from Anthony Martial, Rashford and debutant Daniel James had Old Trafford in raptures.
"We took risks but that's the way here, you've got to go for it. It's risk and reward and today we were rewarded," Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said after the match.
Harry Maguire and Aaron Wan-Bissaka also impressed at the back on their debuts after United spent 130 million pounds (156 million dollars) on the pair over the summer to shore up a defence that conceded 54 Premier League goals last season.
