Manchester United's defence is short of pace and concentration and their punishment has duly arrived. Edin Dzeko leaves marker Rio Ferdinand behind at Samir Nasri's corner and is able to guide a side-foot volley home unchallenged at the near post.

Changes for Arsenal who are still sluggish. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain makes way for Lukas Podolski.

Cheick Tiote rattles in a long-ranger but that is meat and drink for Tim Howard in the Everton goal.

Manchester City could, should, be two clear. Vincent Kompany gets ahead of Marouane Fellaini to flick on and Fernandinho heads over unmarked from six yards. A glorious chance and he knows it. Head in hands.

"Arsenal need to get people up and around Olivier Giroud and support him better than they did in the first half. As far as Swansea are concerned - defensively they are comfortable because they haven't had to deal with any pace from Arsenal. If they don't get into the box they aren't going to score any goals. Michel Vorm hasn't had a save to make since the first minute of the game."

Early goal in the Championship - and it could be a big one! Burnley take the lead against Doncaster thanks to a Sam Vokes penalty.

Leicester are still losing at home to Yeovil. If the scores stay the same, the Clarets would be just two points behind ahead of the top two meeting at Turf Moor on Saturday.

On a platter. Gerard Deulofeu gets his head up in space down the right and picks out the surging run of Romelu Lukaku into the six-yard box. Lukaku holds off the attentions of a pair of defenders to get his toe to it first and Newcastle are up against it now.

"A wonderful start to the second half by City. I'm sure Pellegrini would have said at half-time 'we started the first half brilliantly, can we do it again?' They've started well."

Bayern Munich are the champions of Germany - with just the seven games to spare. A record.

They play Manchester United in the Champions League next week.

It's a night of few goals so far in League Two, the only side to score more than one tonight are Fleetwood who are still within a chance of automatic promotion, they lead Bristol Rovers 2-0 at the Highbury Stadium.

Hartlepool are drawing at home to Mansfield thanks to Marlon Harewood's 28th minute equaliser - his third goal for the club. Plymouth lead Exter 1-0 in the Devon derby as the Pilgrims look to force their way in to the League Two play-off places.

Second placed Scunthorpe are ahead against Cheltenham thanks to Sam Winnal's goal on the stroke of half time, Scunthorpe could go top tonight if Rochdale fail to win at home to Portsmouth.

Mike Lawson, external: Everton defender John Stones really is a huge talent. Surprised he isn't talked about more.

Pav Dhande:, external All this so-and-so should be on the plane to Rio... We can only have 11 on the pitch at once!

Daniel Osunbor:, external I wonder what Bayern Munich will do with this United team next week.

Manchester United are immediately under the cosh. Phil Jones wears a shot from Edin Dzeko right in that rubber-featured face as City get in amongst their neighbours.

We are under way at Old Trafford as well. Shinji Kagawa has jogged out to the right with Juan Mata taking up a more central role.

David Moyes has gone pro-active. Shinji Kagawa is on for Tom Cleverley.

We are back under way at Newcastle and Arsenal. Manchester City are making their hosts wait.

It's been pouring goals at Ashton Gate as Bristol City scored three goals in seven minutes to lead Port Vale 4-0 at the half-way stage.

Leyton Orient are beating Oldham 1-0 thanks to Scott Cuthbert's fourth goal for the club, Wolves don't look to be easing off in the promotion chase as they're 3-0 up against Colchester at Molineux.

At the bottom end of the table Shaun Derry's Notts County side are 1-0 up against Crewe who sat just outside the relegation zone before kick off. Carlisle and Shrewsbury who are 21st and 22nd in the table respectively are currently goalless.

Arsenal are in serious danger of stalling their way out of the top four. If it stays as it is, Everton will be five points behind the Gunners in fifth, but with a game in hand.

Arsenal have to travel to Goodison Park on 6 April as well. Bobby Martinez may just make good that Champions League promise to Bill Kenwright.

Ross County lead Aberdeen at the interval thanks to a glancing header from Melvin De Leeuw. If the Dons can't find a way back, Celtic can wrap up the title with a win at Partick Thistle tomorrow. St Mirren trail 1-0 at home to St Johnstone, with Steven MacLean shooting the visitors ahead.

Varun, Leicester: Feel so sorry for Rooney. Trying to orchestrate but Surrounded by poor quality team mates all around him

Rob in Cheltenham: Arsenal. Two words sum it up. No pace.

Russ: Although I wasn't expecting a United win, I was expecting a bit more fight than this. Where Chelsea got it right with the counter, we are trying it with no width, and not enough pace.

Aman Sheth:, external Time to get the hairdryer out & whack the entire team on the head with it.

I'mReallyNasir:, external Surely Ross Barkley must be on the plane to Rio. Waste of talent to be left at home

Mark Scott:, external Apart from Oxlade-Chamberlain, Arsenal look apathetic
