    36′ Chances at both ends in a matter of seconds!

    First, Mainoo does superbly to let Rashford break into the box on the left and has the presence of mind to pick out McTominay 12 yards out who cushions a shot straight at Kelleher.

    Liverpool break down the other end and Diaz does incredibly well to get into the box.

    His shot at the near post is pushed away by Onana.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    34′ United clear easily again.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    33′ Dalot looks to have been beaten by Diaz down his side as the Liverpool winger darts towards the byline.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    31′ Alexis Mac Allister is booked for stopping a United attack.

    From the deep free kick, a cross into the Liverpool box from Fernandes sees Varane and Lindelof get in each other’s way and the former’s header loops into the hands of Kelleher.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    30′ Good move from Liverpool and Mac Allister picks out Robertson on a forward run down the left.

    He whips a great ball in with three white and green shirts attacking it but Varane heads clear.

    It falls for Szoboszlai on the edge but his effort is easily saved by Onana.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    27′ Big chance for United to make it two!

    23′ Good pace and whip on the cross from Fernandes, but it lands on the roof of the net.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    22′ Joe Gomez with a stupid foul on Bruno Fernandes wide on the United left.

    A free kick in a dangerous position for the home side which the Portuguese will take.

    It’s ten yards inside from the corner flag.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    18′ Robertson’s deep cross from the left misses everyone in the middle.

    Szoboszlai collects and lays it off for Gomez at the edge of the box, who shoots like a defender. Miles over.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    17′ Garnacho is fouled on the right, just inside the Liverpool half.

    Fernandes takes and it’s a deep ball into the box which does look like one that could be attacked but nobody follows in to do so.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    15′ Good counter attack from Liverpool.

    Robertson plays Diaz in down the left, who has the presence of mind to roll it back into the path of the left back, 15 yards from goal but he blazes well over.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    14′ It actually hit the hand of the Scotland skipper….

    But it was breaking his fall so no penalty.

    And nothing comes of the corner.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    13′ Nearly a second for United.

    It’s Garnacho again, played in down the right this time and looks to have a free shot at goal but for a sensational, sliding block from Robertson to divert it behind.

  • Man Utd 1-0 Liverpool

    11′ A frantic start and the home side are in front!

    It all comes from a quickly taken free kick inside their own half with Rashford bursting down the left.

    After good hold-up play, he slips a pass into Garnacho inside the area who has his placed effort saved by Kelleher but only palmed into a dangerous area.

    McTominay was first to react, following in and stabbing it home from a few yards out.

  • GOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!

    UNITED LEAD AND IT’S SCOTT MCTOMINAY!

  • Man Utd 0-0 Liverpool

    9′ ALMOST A SENSATIONAL OPENER!

    Nunez drops out wide on the left and sends a long diagonal into the box for Salah.

    It drops over Dalot’s head and the Egyptian hits a first time volley beyond Onana but an inch or so wide of the far post.

    Incredible technique and so, so close.

  • Man Utd 0-0 Liverpool

    7′ Szoboszlai gets played in down the right channel and fires a teasing ball across United’s goal.

    Varane intercepts at the front post before the striker is penalised for a foul as United cleared.

  • Man Utd 0-0 Liverpool

    5′ Szoboszlai has an attempt at goal from 22 yards with his weak foot but it’s an easy stop for Onana.

  • Man Utd 0-0 Liverpool

    4′ CLOSE!

    It’s United again but this time it’s worked down the right and Garnacho gets his first involvement.

    They’re expecting a cross into the area but he instead picks Rashford out just inside the area on the left hand side, who opts for a first time placed finish which Kelleher palms away from danger.

    Great start from United.

  • Man Utd 0-0 Liverpool

    2′ Oh a good chance for the hosts!

    They work it well down the left and a ball cut back towards McTominay on the edge sees Wan-Bissaka on the stretch attempt an effort at goal.

    It’s a poor one and Kelleher collects easily.

  • Man Utd 0-0 Liverpool

    1′ Already I’m wrong about something.

    Although this is surely a little surprising, with Diogo Dalot operating at right back and Wan-Bissaka at left back.

    He’ll look to stop Mo Salah.

  • KICK OFF

    Bruno Fernandes gets this game up and running.

    Sensational atmosphere, it really is.

  • Huddled

    The Liverpool players gather in a pre-match huddle with an animated Virgil van Dijk leading it.

    United will get us underway.
