Ashley Young steps in front of Craig Conway, sending the Blackburn Rovers man sprawling to the floor. Martin Atkinson blows his whistle and marches towards Young, who tries his best to ignore the referee before eventually turning and accepting the yellow card.

Another corner wasted by Manchester United after Ander Herrera's shot deflected behind. 

Blackburn are preparing to make their first change.

How close was Zlatan Ibrahimovic to scoring with his first touch? This close.

Watch his chance above.

Decision time for Owen Coyle now. He has seen the changes that Manchester United have made and the dynamism that has brought.

Does he keep both Emnes and Graham up front? Or drop one back into midfield and try and take a replay? 

Jose Mourinho, who has miniature pools of water forming on his shoulders from the drizzle, scrunches up his face as time ticks on towards the 90. Last thing he wants is a replay.  

Blackburn's football has been easy on the eye at times in this game. I saw them a couple of times against Huddersfield this season and was impressed. How are they second from bottom? 

They've not had as many chances in this half but still carry a threat as Liam Feeney bends a cross behind the Manchester United defence but just ahead of Marvin Emnes' outstretched boot.

A classic cross-come-shot. On another day Zlatan Ibrahimovic would have got a toe to that and scored.

Every time I've seen Zlatan live, he's great wth the younger players. He never gets down on them or beats on them if they play a bad pass. He's always clapping them, he's got a great attitude and seems a really good professional.

Marcus Rashford has gone out wide to accommodate Zlatan Ibrahimovic's introduction and he earns Manchester United a corner as his cross from the left is deflected behind. The corner comes to nothing. Set pieces from both sides have been disappointing.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is inches away from making an instant impact! Ander Herrera jinks his way into the area before firing the ball across the face of goal, Ibrahimovic stretches out a boot but just can't reach it. 

Hour mark reached and Jose Mourinho decides it is time to make a change, two changes in fact as Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingard go off. Coming on? Only Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba.

Just what the tiring Blackburn players want to see...

Ashley Young, arguably Manchester United's busiest player at both ends of the pitch, puts another cross behind to hand Blackburn a corner. Craig Conway whips it but again Sergio Romero is there with a confidence catch.

Ashley Young looks in pain after he is caught by Craig Conway's challenge just after shooting at Jason Steele but, after getting some treatment, he is fine to crack on.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a change made soon. Feels like we have hit a bit of an impasse. 

Abhishek Reddy: Lingard is a poor man's Welbeck.. hopefully gets subbed off soon now that he is on yellow too

Sahil Loomba: Watching all the way from Marbella! United will get the job done today! Typical Mourinho style.....Grinding it out!

Jose Mourinho is out on the touchline but he's being very encouraging to his players - even when they can't even deliver a simple free-kick.

They have drawn too many games but you'd take one defeat in 23 games, whichever way you look at it. 

... Liam Feeney aims for Gordon Greer but his corner is plucked out of the air by Sergio Romero.

Ashley Young plays it safe as he heads Liam Feeney's deep cross behind and Blackburn have the second half's first corner...

Ander Herrera falls foul of the wet surface created by the constant drizzle as he skies a free kick well over the bar.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is warming up. On soon?

Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Marcus Rashford exchange passes to cut open the Blackburn defence but Liam Feeney is there to shrug off Mkhitaryan as he tries to shoot. Blackburn then try to break through Marvin Emnes but he is fouled by Jesse Lingard, who takes one for the team by picking up a booking.

Lots of possession for Manchester United at the moment as they try to work an opening. Blackburn holding firm at the moment.
