    asega martin: Leicester have nothing to thank but luck.they are hanging on a thread!

    RegularJon‏: Ref has missed a number of fouls on United players on edge of box. And the Mata "offside". Disappointing

    Anükram Adhikary: Ndidi has been brilliant. And of course Schmeichel.

    Man United do look very impressive but Leicester deserve credit for hanging in there.

    United hogging the ball but finding it very difficult to get past the well-organised Leicester back line.

    Leicester will be very happy at how this game has gone so far.

    Going to plan for the Foxes.

    United go to the other end, but Romelu Lukaku cannot find enough power or direction on his header from Daley Blind's cross and it sails wide.

    Pogba hit that ferociously. You can't leave Pogba with that amount of space - at some point he will punish you.

  12. CLOSE!published at 35 mins

    Man Utd 0-0 Leicester

    Paul Pogba enjoying freedom in Leicester penalty area, but his cross-come-shot is pushed away by Kasper Schmeichel.

    The Foxes defence then sit back against the Frenchman, inviting him on, but Pogba's shot from all of 30 yards is narrowly wide of goal.

    He is getting closer though.

    Herikh Mkhitaryan starting to pull the strings in the final third, but his foray forward is put to a stop by Wes Morgan.

    The Leicester skipper has had an assured half at the back so far.

    Anthony Martial swivels 25 yards out and caresses a low drive which is straight at Kasper Schmeichel.

    United then ask for a free-kick on the edge of the box, but referee Michael Oliver says it was an accidental challenge by Danny Simpson on Phil Jones.

    Jose Mourinho in the dugout, does not agree.

    There are threats everywhere from Man United. Leicester are getting a little over loaded.

    United resorting to long-range shots, it shows how well Leicester are defending though.

    Again, it is Paul Pogba with the strike, but unlike his previous effort, this one is shanked into the Stretford End.

    Pogba looks ruefully at the turf.

    And another strike from outside the box by the Frenchman, another which does not trouble Kasper Schmeichel.

    Not pretty from Leicester, but very effective.

    Matty James picks out Jamie Vardy will a long ball to the edge of the box, which is then laid off to Shinji Okazaki.

    The Japanese striker drills a low shot which David de Gea can gather to his right.

    At the other end, Paul Pogba lashes a 30 yard shot which whistles inches wide of Kasper Schmeichel's right-hand post.

  18. WHAT A SAVEpublished at 20 mins

    Man Utd 0-0 Leicester

    Peter Schmeichel would have been proud of this one.

    Juan Mata curls an effort from the edge of the box towards the top corner, but Kasper Schmeichel leaps high to his right to tip the ball away.

    A stunning save.

    20 years on and a Schmeichel still making saves at Old Trafford.

    There was not a lot in it - there is a lot of argument from Juan Mata.

    Leicester City are in danger of being overrun on a few occasions. They can consider themselves quite fortunate to still have a clean sheet.

    Anthony Martial gets a start today and has impressed so far.

    The Frenchman dinks a ball to the back post for fellow countryman Paul Pogba, who has to stretch and volley but cannot direct his effort on target.

    United starting to get some joy.
