Jesse Lingard got the winner for United after Willian had put the Blues ahead before Romelu Lukaku grabbed a well-taken equaliser.
Matic did have one of his best performances in a United shirt as his side picked up a valuable three points to remain in second.
And he insisted he had extra determination to beat the Blues after becoming unsettled at his old club.
Asked if he wanted three points more because it was against his old side, Matic said: "Of course. I played for Chelsea for three-and-a-half years and I gave them my best to win against them and show my quality again.
"I didn't have anything to prove to them. I wanted to show my new club that I deserve to wear this Manchester United shirt.
