What a first half. Four goals and a red card.
Manchester United, down to 10 men, can only hold on for a few minutes. Jaden Philogene gets his second of the night. He is to the right side, just outside the penalty area, puts in an attempted cross looking for Liam Delap, but the ball bounces past the striker, past Andre Onana and into the far corner.

Tottenham 0-1 Man City
Glenn Hoddle
Former England and Tottenham manager on TNT Sports
The first contact from Kevin Danso is good but he is a fair distance out. To beat the keeper from there it would have to be some effort. It has got the crowd going.

Simon Stone
BBC Sport's chief football news reporter at Old Trafford
Patrick Dorgu may argue he played the ball first but that is not going to save him.
It was a high, dangerous tackle and that is a red card.
Alejandro Garnacho is the unwitting sacrifice as Noussair Mazraoui comes on. Garnacho heads straight to the dressing room.

Tottenham 0-1 Man City
Manchester City will be pleased to go in ahead at the break but they could've had a few more and they'll be disappointed with that.

Yes, you've got to make a change tactically, put a defensive player on. Ruben Amorim will be thinking - how can I get the three points?
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 20:17 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February
Manchester United 2-1 Ipswich Town
Alejandro Garnacho is the unlucky one who has to be removed as Manchester United look to hold on with 10 men. Noussair Mazraoui is the man who comes on to tighten things up.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:16 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February
Nottingham Forest 0-0 Arsenal
The rivals for the Premier League runners-up spot are level at the break.

Tottenham 0-1 Man City
Kevin Danso's header looks like it could be looping under the bar and Ederson makes a save at full stretch to make sure it goes over.
Manchester City get up the other end at pace but the sweeping ball across the penalty area has too much on it for Erling Haaland to latch on as he races into the box.

I have no idea why it's taking this long. It is a red card, all day, everyday.

Abdoul: Arsenal are too slow to build, they wait until Forest overcrowd their box and no room to shoot, when Forest have the ball, they play very quick
KICK-OFFpublished at 20:15 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February
Liverpool 0-0 Newcastle
Off we go in our final match of the evening on Merseyside.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot watches on from the stands as he begins to serve his two-game ban.

Brentford 0-0 Everton
Everton midfielder Carlos Alcaraz is down receiving treatment.
RED CARD - Patrick Dorgu (Manchester United)published at 20:14 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February
Manchester United 2-1 Ipswich Town
It was a truly awful challenge from Patrick Dorgu, sliding in and catching the leg of Omari Hutchinson, who is really lucky to have not sustained a serious injury.
Manchester United lead, but have to play the rest of this one with 10 men. What a chance for relegation-threatened Ipswich Town.

Nottingham Forest 0-0 Arsenal
Arsenal have not had a shot on target so far - although they did hit the post.

The referee goes to the monitor. Dorgu could be off. It looks worse and worse every time you see it.

Nottingham Forest 0-0 Arsenal
Pinball from an Arsenal corner before Forest eventually get it clear. David Raya runs into the centre circle to get Arsenal back on the ball ASAP.

This is not a great challenge. This could be a straight red.
That for me is a terrible challenge.

Manchester United 2-1 Ipswich Town
Patrick Dorgu has dived in and caught Omari hutchinson high up on his left leg. Dorgu could be in real trouble here. That looked horrible and Hutchinson needs treatment.
We have a VAR check for a red card.

Brentford 0-0 Everton
Everton striker Beto should score here. He runs in one on one but Mark Flekken stands big and tall and saves his effort.
