    I have to give David Moyes credit. With 10 men he's left two strikers on and replaced Cattermole with Borini. Sunderland are having a go and leaving themselves open at the back and why not.

  3. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 77 mins

    Sunderland 0-2 Manchester United

    Just what the Sunderland defence needed - Anthony Martial is on for Manchester United. Pace. That's him and Marcus Rashford now.

    He instantly gets beyond Jason Denayer and hits a lob straight at Sergio Romero.

    I don't think there would be too many complaints if this one was called off now. It's a bit of a non event as Manchester United keep the ball in midfield without really threatening.

    OmbongiDVD: The lads should be a little ruthless in front of goal and maybe close in on Arsenal in terms of goal difference

    Shane Daly:  David Moyes is not a poor manager. Why do fans attack Moyes as if he's a failure, 11 years at Goodison. Give the man a break

    Nick Clohessy: When (not if) Sunderland go down, there will be takers for Defoe, Pickford and N'Dong. Nobody else. This is not a good squad

    Much more space in midfield since Sunderland a) went a man down and then b) took Lee Cattermole off.

    There are more goals in this one for the visitors you feel.

    Chance! Manchester United have a clear break, two-on-one, that they should score but for once Zlatan Ibrahimovic's pass to sub Marcus Rashford is not perfect, sending the youngster wide and he can't find a shot or a cross in the end.

    Waste.

  8. 'Fighting for fifth and sixth'published at 14:57 British Summer Time 9 April 2017

    Everton v Leicester (16:00 BST)

    Everton manager Ronald Koeman:  "We are fighting for European football. I expect if we get six points from our next two home games, we will fight for fifth and sixth place in the table.

    "I don't understand the difference [in Leicester's form since Claudio Ranieri was sacked]. It's the same players. Maybe the manager is keeping the team the same as last season. We expect a tough opponent."

    Damien Hanlon: Shaw always coming off in 2nd half - couldn't hear all those instructions from Mourinho being other side of pitch

    Khael Malik: What does Shaw have to do to catch a break?

    Decent opening for the hosts as Didier Ndong finds Jermain Defoe on the edge of the area, he wriggles away from a marker and crashes a shot over the top.

  12. YELLOW CARD & SUBpublished at 64 mins

    Sunderland 0-2 Manchester United

    Jesse Lingard is in the book after chopping down Javier Manquillo, who then catches Lingard in the face with his boot as he falls to the floor.

    So Lingard needs a sponge to the face, and is also shown the yellow card. And he is then replaced by Marcus Rashford. A terrible 90 seconds for the lad.

    Luke Shaw can't carry on after buckling his ankle a few minutes ago - Daley Blind is on.

    Shaw and nemesis/manager Jose Mourinho share an embrace and a mini debrief as he sits down.

    Sunderland 0-2 Manchester United

    Manchester United smell more goals now as Paul Pogba lashes a volley over the bar.

    Jose Mourinho has won 67 of the 68 Premier League games in which his teams have been 2+ goals ahead - the exception was a 2-2 draw with Bolton in November 2004.  

  15. ouch!

    Luke Shaw gives away a free-kick and ends up in pain as a result as Didier Ndong accidentally stands on his ankle. He's OK after a bit of treatment, and Jermain Defoe hits the free-kick at Sergio Romero.

    Stephen Shaw: Wrong decision yes, but it wouldn't matter if we were 3-0 up. The real problem is poor manager, poor players, losing culture

    Michael Stone: United need to not sit back now. Goal difference as we already know can be critical!

    FranklinPAUL: Pogba can be shockingly poor at times... And I like him.

    Not even the pretence of closing down from the Sunderland defence now as they allow Jesse Lingard all the time he needs to put the ball over, it runs to Zlatan Ibrahimovic, whose low ball in from the right is kicked clear by an uncertain Jordan Pickford.

    Sunderland 0-2 Manchester United

    Here's another look at that Henrikh Mkhitaryan goal. The only Sunderland involvement is when Victor Anichebe (28) makes an unsuccessful challenge. Apart from that, it's all United, straight from the kick-off.

    If you've ever lived through a relegation for your own team you'll recognise the familiar cocktail which Sunderland are drinking this afternoon.

    A mix of decisions going against you, half chances not going in and conceding the first real shot the opposition have.

    It all ends up in the drop, nine times out of 10.

    RewelYT: HEY MKHI YOU SO FINE YOU SO FINE YOU SO FINE YOU BLOW MY MIND

    Edward Taylor:  Down to 10 men, 2 goals down and with their confidence already in pieces, this could be a rout

    Jeremiah Kariuki:  Did Sunderland have a touch of the ball before Mkhitaryan get that goal? What a lovely touch!

    Nope, they did not
