Juve edge Napoli in seven-goal thriller
The champions led 3-0 through goals from debutant Danilo, former Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain and Cristiano Ronaldo's first of the season.
But three summer signings scored to put Napoli level - Kostas Manolas, Hirving Lozano and Giovanni di Lorenzo.
That was in vain as Koulibaly shinned a deep free-kick past his own keeper.
Juve, who have won the last eight titles, clearly lacked the presence of captain Giorgio Chiellini - likely to be out for several months with an
anterior cruciate ligament injury - at the back, with £67.5m summer signing Matthijs de Ligt making a shaky debut.
Juventus boss Maurizio Sarri did not take charge against his former club as he recovers from pneumonia, although he was at the Allianz Stadium watching the game.
Blades 'not day trippers' says Wilder after draw
Chelsea were 2-0 up by half-time after striker Tammy Abraham struck twice, but Kurt Zouma's late own goal ensured a draw following Callum Robinson's strike in the first minute of the second half.
The result puts the visitors, who finished second in the Championship last season, into eighth in the Premier League table, one place above Chelsea.
"Three years ago we were bottom of League One and now we have come away from Chelsea with a result," said Wilder. "We are not day trippers getting autographs and collecting shirts."A spill by United keeper Dean Henderson when under pressure from Christian Pulisic gave Abraham the chance for his first, and a mistake in the United defence allowed the Chelsea striker the opportunity for his second.
But the Blades pulled one back in the first minute of the second half when Robinson, who had missed from close range in the first half, scored his first since joining the club from Preston in the summer.
Chelsea struggled to threaten after Henderson made a brilliant save in the second half to deny Abraham a hat-trick.
And United pulled level after 89 minutes when Robinson's cross towards substitute Lys Mousset was diverted into his own net by the unlucky Zouma, to leave Frank Lampard still searching for a first home win since he became Chelsea manager.

Lomachenko beats Campbell in thrilling world title fight
Lomachenko, 31, regarded as one of the best pound-for-pound boxers, was made to work hard for the thrilling win.
Campbell, also 31, was aiming to become a world champion for the first time but was floored in the 11th as the Ukrainian's class proved decisive.
Lomachenko got the verdict 119-108, 119-108, 118-108 at London's O2 Arena.
Campbell, an Olympic gold medallist in 2012, suffered the third loss of his 23-fight professional career but deserves huge praise for the way he fought back to hear the final bell.
"He is so good, he adapts to any plans," said Campbell. "Tonight was not the jackpot but my time will come."The Hull man was in trouble at the end of the fifth when he was caught by a crushing left hook and then a barrage of body and head shots, but was saved by the bell.
Campbell took more punishment in the sixth, but had success of his own later in that round and the next in a captivating contest.
He was floored in the 11th after a barrage of body shots and then a jab. But he got up to finish the fight, although two of the three judges did not give him a round, only a share of one.
Campbell was later taken to hospital but promoter Eddie Hearn said it was only a precautionary measure.
