Excellent pass, deadly finish.

MOTD's touchline presenter Dan Walker is chatting to a couple of football legends - Derby hero Roy McFarland and former Manchester United man Paul Ince...

"We never got going, couldn't string two passes together," says McFarland. "United opened very sharply, but did not create a lot of chances. But we stuck at it. Funnily enough it was the only time we put anything together."

Ince isn't impressed with the away backline: "Defensively they're not great and you will always get a chance against them - as it has been proved. Derby gave them too much respect and stood off them. But the goal gave them more belief and they can go on and win this game now."

Anthony Martial gets by players so easily! He glides away from Cyrus Christie again and fires a low cross right through the goalmouth. Christie is chasing shadows at right-back, he needs help. 

We are back under way.

Have Manchester United been that bad? Not judging by the stats. They have dominated possession and territory - as you would expect a Premier League side to do against one from the Championship. But the stat which really matters is the one at the top of this entry...

Derby were much improved in the final 15 minutes of that half - can they keep that momentum up? Or will Wayne Rooney and co turn it on again?

"I've never seen Manchester United this sloppy with their passing. It's like they have no confidence when they pass the ball forward." 

Robbie Savage
Former Derby midfielder on BBC One

"At times Manchester United have been very sloppy with their passing. When they get the ball, it's three or four touches then they give the ball to Derby."

Manchester United's passing is under scrutiny from the panel but United did manage a passing accuracy of 87.7% in that first half. 

Derby found their target on 71.7% of occasions. 

It was so good, let's take another look. Brilliant from Wayne Rooney for the opener.

"I don't see a big difference between the two teams. A lot of possession and a great goal by Wayne Rooney but someone has to step up and do something out of the ordinary for them to get going. Derby have played Manchester United quite well so far. Derby needed to step forward and they have done well since their goal." 

Alan Shearer
Former England striker on BBC One

"It's been an entertaining half. I was really worried for Derby - I thought 'have a bit of belief'. But they have grown into the game, shifted everyone up the field and got their reward.

"Derby have got to have belief. It isn't a great Manchester United team."

Danny Murphy
MOTD pundit and ex-Liverpool midfielder on BBC One

"Paul Clement will be happy Derby have got the equaliser but he will be disappointed with the performance. Now he has a chance to get the lads in and sort it out." 

Wayne Rooney's right hip downwards is offside. Left knee is on. 

Jim, Reading: Blind and Fellaini really need to go. Blind is the weakest link. 

Nathan, Derby: Been the same for the last couple games, we need Blackman off Camara on for a bit of width and trickery on the wing. 

Manchester United looked a class above for 30 minutes but then Derby found a way back into the game. Good half...

Manchester United have a penalty appeal as Anthony Martial breezes past Cyrus Christie again, and the defender touches the ball with his arm as it goes out of play. Nothing given...

Looking for someone to blame United fans?? Liam Fray, Red Devils-supporting frontman of indie band The Courteeners, is your scapegoat...

The kingmaker looks on...
