    Anon: The most upsetting thing about this match is that Andy Carroll is number 2. That is the number of a right back, at a stretch a centre back. Never a striker.

    Anon: Casemiro is the signing of the year!

  4. goal

    GOAL - Man Utd 2-0 Reading

    Casemiro

    Goal machine.

    Fred lays the ball off to Casemiro, who hits a first-time strike from 25 yards which skims along the ground and flies into the bottom corner.

    Surely game over now.

  5. Man Utd 1-0 Reading

    United have a free-kick on the left wing. Bruno Fernandes whips it in but Andy Carroll heads it away.

  6. 'Clever finish'

    Brilliant.

    It is that inside right avenue that United have been using so well this game.

    Clever little pass to Casemiro and amazing finish.

  7. SUBSTITUTION

    Man Utd 1-0 Reading

    United bring on Fred for Christian Eriksen.

  8. Man Utd 1-0 Reading

    Manchester United have scored in their last 24 FA Cup home games.

  9. goal

    GOAL - Man Utd 1-0 Reading

    Casemiro

    United get the lead they thoroughly deserve.

    Christian Eriksen finds Antony with a crossfield ball. The winger finds the run of fellow Brazilian Casemiro, who just scoops the ball over the keeper.

  10. Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    Andy Carroll dives in with a bit of a two-footed lunge on Christian Eriksen. He's a bit lucky to avoid some extra punishment there. Just a free-kick.

  11. Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    Junior Hoilett, with stuff shoved up both nostrils, is back on.

  12. Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    Reading are down to 10 men for now. They lift a free-kick into the box and Andy Carroll's effort from outside the box is blocked. His first chance of the game.

  13. Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    There's quite a lot of blood coming from Junior Hoilett's face, it's a nasty one.

  14. Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    Junior Hoilett needs some treatment after Wout Weghorst caught him in the face accidentally.

  15. Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    Here we go again. Bruno Fernandes drives over a United shot from about 25 yards. Good play by Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

  16. 'Why we love the FA Cup'

    Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    Leon Osman
    Former Everton midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

    All to play for with both teams. It is why we love the FA Cup. It only takes one moment.

  17. KICK-OFF

    Man Utd 0-0 Reading

    The second half begins. If it has the same pattern as the first surely United will score.

    Anon: Fantastic half of football, great to see Reading competing at this stage again. Bring on the next 45!

    Anon: I've loved football for 60 years but VAR is creating such a boring game. Why is VAR used in the FA Cup when it's not available in all games. Not a level playing field. This offside rule was introduced to stop players sitting in the 6 yard box not to debate if they were a finger nail offside. Is that really an advantage?

    Ashley: Bruno's goal should have never stood against City after Rashford purposely played in an off side purpose and tricked the defenders. Very sneaky. Football is all swings and roundabouts. Everything balances itself out in the end.
