    If anyone was going to settle it, it is Marcus Rashford. This Europa League ball shifts, it wobbles and moves.

    Rashford puts his foot through it and the goalkeeper thinks it is coming right to him but it swerves into the corner.

    The Betis fans were initially silences by that goal but then burst into applause. I can't imagine it was for Rashford's strike, more for the efforts of their players, which are now going to be in vain.

    Marcus Rashford

    Tie over!

    From the ridiculous to the sublime. Moments after Marcus Rashford punts an effort (admittedly after a bobble) way over the bar, he fires Manchester United ahead on the night and puts this tie to bed.

    It is a superb, powerful, swerving shot from outside the box into the corner of the net. Brilliant.

    Massive chance, that would have killed the tie and it fell to the right person.

    You just feel Bruno Fernandes held onto it just too long and it closed down the angle for Marcus Rashford.

    And now David de Gea is called into action!

    Ayoze Perez darts to the near post to flick a header on target from a corner but the United keeper is equal to it.

    Huge chance to kill it!

    United are away. It's four on three. Facundo Pellistri finds Bruno Fernandes and his pass gives Marcus Rashford just the keeper to beat. The form he has been in, you are just waiting for him to slot home, but RuiSilva comes out on top with a fine block.

    Facundo Pellistri has been a willing runner but he's not seeing as much of the ball as he'd like. He is sent scurrying into Betis territory by a fine pass from Fred, but is crowded out before he can fire an effort at goal.

    Marcus Rashford is fortunate when a sloppy pass bounces back to him, but the resulting effort he fires is off target. High and over the bar.

    It has been uncomfortable for Manchester United who will feel they need the first goal still. They can't afford to cruise.

    If they thought they could come out and just see it out, it will be tougher than that. Betis have had a chance already.

    An early chance for Betis. Their best for a while in the game.

    Joaquin is fed the ball in space near the United box but he curls his shot off target.

    The situation remains the same as it did an hour ago. Betis need three unanswered goals to keep this tie alive.

    All Man Utd need to do is hold them at arm's length.

    The second half is under way. No changes.

    Erik ten Hag will be grateful of the lack of clinical edge from Real Betis. They have had enough moments in the first half.

    Manchester United have had the majority of possession but it won't feel like that. They really haven't had enough control of the game.

    Manchester United have failed to have a shot on target in the first of a game for the first time this season.

    It's not a problem, though. They remain three goals ahead.
