    Anderlecht 1-1 Man Utd

    How long added on? 

    Time enough for another Manchester United change. Henrikh Mkhitaryan is heading for the showers, Timothy Fosu-Mensah is on. 

    A defensive switch with THREE minutes stoppage time to play.

    Anderlecht 1-1 Man Utd

    This place is rocking now. The home fans believe. They want to see another before we run out of time and return to Manchester in a week's time. 

    How big is that Paul Pogba miss going to be?

    One shot on target = one goalpublished at 21:49 British Summer Time 13 April 2017

    Manchester United are levelled through a bullet header from Leander Dendoncker. Such power behind it as he met a cross from the left. Sergio Romero had no chance.

    That's Anderlecht's first shot on target. A vital goal at a vital time. Is there still more?

    Under FIVE to go. Will we see one more opening? We're bound to, no?

    Dennis Appiah looks to pry open a chink of light. Anderlecht gambling now, sending their full-backs into the adventure zone. 

    United win it back and have space to counter, but Youri Tielemans robs Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the vital moment. Superb midfield play.

  7. CLOSE!published at 83 mins

    Anderlecht 0-1 Man Utd

    Paul Pogba can send Manchester United into the last four in all but name with a composed finish... 

    But played through by Zlatan Ibrahimovic's flick he can only find the keeper's legs! From the corner, Marouane Fellaini's cushioned header is easily gathered. 

    This is heating up...

  8. CLOSE!published at 81 mins

    Anderlecht 0-1 Man Utd

    A change in tone. A sign of danger.   

    Sofiane Hanni drives one from just outside the box after selling Maroune Fellaini with a turn on the edge. Deflected for a corner, which Fellaini scrambles clear. 

    But United work it up the park again and Fellaini stings the gloves with a driven effort from range. It can swing both ways...

    Youri Tielemans hasn't been able to have much impact. The 19-year-old captain reaches a stray ball first but can only prod it towards a Manchester United shirt. 

    The away side are still comfortable. They're taking their time with this, dictating play. Will they gamble for a tie-ending second in the last 10?

    Kara Mbodji again with the sliding clearance as Paul Pogba looks to play in Zlatan Ibrahimovic down the left. 

    Marouane Fellaini's getting booed every time he gets on the ball. He will love that.

    Anderlecht 0-1 Man Utd

    Marcus Rashford off and Marouane Fellaini on. As a former Standard Liege player, Fellaini's greeted by a howl of jeers. 

    And at last Anderlecht have their top scorer on the park - Lukasz Teodorczyk is on for Isaac Kiese Thelin.

    Zlatan Ibrahimovic smashes a burly fist into his own palm in frustration over a delayed pass he wanted quicker from Henrikh Mkhitaryan's boot. Offside is the call. 

    Ibrahimovic darts forward again, he can't beat his man but cleverly knocks a ball across the box - but Anderlecht can clear again.

    Lovely feet from Anthony Martial to slip free of two markers and into space, he smashes one on his right but again Kara Mbodji is there with a sterling block. 

    The home fans are still roaring their support. Under 20 minutes left for them to alter this tie.

    Jose Mourinho will be satisfied well enough with this so far, but with the run of fixtures they've got coming up we'll fancy another away goal. Hands in pockets, he's giving nothing away on the bench. 

    Youri Tielemans would miss the second leg with another booking but escapes a yellow for a trip on Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Mourinho had something to say about that...

  15. YELLOW CARDpublished at 68 mins

    Anderlecht 0-1 Man Utd

    Actually, Anthony Martial's gone wide left, with Marcus Rashford slotting in on the right. Zlatan Ibrahimovic the unit in the middle.

    First touches for Sofiane Hanni as Eric Bailly blocks a shot on the edge. 

    And as United look to zoom up on the counter, Ivan Obradovic cleans out Marcus Rashford and picks up a yellow.

    Sofiane Hanni coming on for Anderlecht, with Nicolae Stanciu coming off, in another reshuffle in the forward line. 

    That's one change left for your man Lukasz Teodorczyk to come on. This tie is ebbing away from them. Time for your top scorer, if he's fit enough?

    Nope, it's Jesse Lingard who makes way for Anthony Martial on the right wing. He could do with a decent shift, the Frenchman.

    I haven't typed the words Paul Pogba too often tonight. He's dipped back into a deep position on the left, looking to pitch balls into space up the top of the pitch into Marcus Rashford and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. 

    This latest one comes off well, a nice take from Rashford, but he turns into a crowd. 

    Looks like Anthony Martial is being readied. Is that Rashford's evening done?

  19. CHANCE!published at 59 mins

    Anderlecht 0-1 Man Utd

    Ivan Obradovic - the Anderlecht left-back, on his right foot from the edge of the box... Well, it's the outcome you might expect. 

    Frank Acheampong's ball across the box fell kindly, but the opening goes begging as Obradovic fumbles his shot into the hoardings. Got to hit the target at least.

    Anderlecht 0-1 Man Utd

    A change for the hosts, but it's not top scorer Lukasz Teodorczyk. Not yet. 

    Instead Alexandru Chipciu comes on for Massimo Bruno - like-for-like in attack down the right.
