    It is not all doom and gloom, Manchester United fans.

    The 1-1 aggregate score means your team are going through on away goals.

    That could all change if Rostov score though. Can they? Let's see.

    Rostov get us back under way.

    Ricky Lee Everett:  Lifeless from United - Rostov are so poor and we didn't see any genuine free flowing attacking football 

    Ben Virdee:  Why has Mourinho changed the system to five  at the back? It's so so so slow and predictable! Copying Conte? Boring like LVG!!!

    Narek Verdian:  There isn't really much more Jose can do, is there? The players have to deliver... how many more chances until there is a goal?

    Former Manchester United midfielder Owen Hargreaves on BT Sport:  "Rostov have no threat. Eric Bailly and Marcos Rojo need to play higher, while Chris Smalling can play as a sweeper.

    "United have played some good football at times and Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been at the heart of everything good."

    One minute's worth of injury-time at Old Trafford did not go down well with Jose Mourinho.

    He walked to the fourth official and gestured it should have been at least three.

    Mourinho was still complaining as the whistle went.

    United going through on away goals as it stands.

    Nearly a finger to the lips celebration from Paul Pogba, as he finds space on the edge of the box, but his carefully executed left-footed shot is brilliantly pushed away by the flying Nikita Medvedev.

    Harrison Short:  I'm a big fan of Valencia, but I'm not sure I've ever seen him use his left foot. How hasn't he been figured out?

    Jay:  The Rostov players are clearly not used to playing on grass.

  20. What do the goal-line officials do?published at 20:42 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March 2017

    Man Utd 0-0 Rostov

    Simon Stone
    BBC Sport at Old Trafford

    I have never really watched a goal-line official but its all a bit odd.

    They never go beyond the penalty area of their allotted side of the pitch, and never come inside the six-yard box, which means they are only covering about 15 yards in total.

    When the ball is in that half of the field, they move along the line a bit like a crab, occasionally getting faster when the action gets close.

    What a job.
