    Will we have a winner at either game? Both look likely to me...

    And another good stop! David de Gea this time, away to his left to tip away a dipping shot from Alex Iwobi!

    SIX minutes left...

    However this season turns out for Manchester United, it will be remembered as the campaign when they unearthed a star.

    Mason Greenwood is having an amazing impact. A real striker.

    Kit Michael Beaupre: Too early for an England call up for Greenwood before the Euros?

    Colin Mackay: He's only been caretaker manager for two games but the case for keeping Big Dunc in charge, at least until the end of the season, grows stronger surely. Let's see what he can do and take it from there.

  8. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:39 Greenwich Mean Time 15 December 2019

    Wolves 1-1 Tottenham

    They're queuing up to take Adama Traore out - Harry Kane has to come over and trip the winger this time. He's unstoppable by legal means.

    Manchester United 1-1 Everton

    Mason Greenwood is the third-youngest player to score a Premier League goal at Old Trafford after Federico Macheda and Danny Welbeck. Everton look ragged now.

  10. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:37 Greenwich Mean Time 15 December 2019

    Wolves 1-1 Tottenham

    Adam Traore has torn Tottenham up at times and Eric Dier has had enough of being shown a clean pair of heels as he just slides in and cleans the winger out at full speed. As clear cut a yellow card as you could see. Filthy.

  11. 'Superb strike'published at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 15 December 2019

    Former Manchester City midfielder on BBC 5 Live

    What a wonderful strike by Mason Greenwood. He sets himself up and strikes it. Jordan Pickford had no chance, superb from the youngster.

    GOAL - Manchester United 1-1 Evertonpublished at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 15 December 2019

    Mason Greenwood (77 mins)

    Impact! Mason Greenwood has steered United level and it's a really, really crisp finish. The youngster gets the ball on the edge of the area and hits it really early, left-footed and arrowed into the corner.

    Past Jordan Pickford before he could really set himself.

  13. Postpublished at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 15 December 2019

    Manchester United have had over 70% of the ball in the second half. Jordan Pickford hasn't had to do much...

    Ed Franklin: Spurs have been holding on for 60 minutes. A goal has been coming. Can't understand why Jose hasn't changed the shape or personnel.

    There are some players you just love to see do well regardless of who you support. Adama Traore is definitely one of those players.

    Scott McTominay loses the ball and Richarlison threatens to steam in behind, Fred recovers well to make the challenge. A second Everton goal could well be curtains.

    Mesut Ozil may have angered China but he starts for Arsenal, as Tierney and Xhaka drop out from the team which beat West Ham.

    Phl Foden starts for City, as Otamendi, Mendy and Gundogan all also come in.

    Full teams to come.

    Wolves 1-1 Tottenham

    Look away now Chrissy Wilder, it's one of those offsides which isn't offside and one team stops. Son runs into the area and squares it for Harry Kane, who goes down in the middle and the chance is gone. The flag then goes up, before the VAR screen says they are checking for a penalty, which isn't given.

    What was all that about? Absolutely no idea.

  19. Postpublished at 15:27 Greenwich Mean Time 15 December 2019

    Victor Lindelof shoots over from a corner, Manchester United really cranking up the pressure gauge now. Can Everton hang on?

    Duncan Ferguson replaces Bernard with Moise Kean. He hasn't scored yet...

    Mason Greenwood's first involvement is a good one as he swivels and finds Daniel James inside the area, he turns and shoots but it's comfy for Jordan Pickford.
