89' Douglas and Blind smash into each other on the half-way line; nasty nasty collision as Douglas' chest bounces off Blind's knee - and Blind's abdomen gets smashed into by the Brazilian's knee... OUCH, as it were
86' Mkhitaryan plays in a smashing ball to Rashford, who looks up sees Lukaku steaming in and tees him up - but the big Belgian's shot is blocked well by Ruben Dias
83' Some brilliant footwork, and hold-up play, from Lukaku precedes a lovely little turn and pass that releases Mkhitaryan into the box but Douglas does superbly to force the ball away for a goalkick
80' Another wild Blind cross ends up across the North Sea - as Pizzi is taken off for Jonas. Oh, and Samaris got himself a yellow for conceding that silly penalty
77' WOOF! Rashford races at Samaris and Douglas, cuts inside, does the soft-shoe shuffle and wins a penalty.... which after much confusion Daley Blind will take...
73' Some more sublime passing from United at the edge of the box releases McTominay into the box but Ruben Dias does supremely well to throw his body on the line and block it away
72' McTominay plays a superb early pass to Martial - who checks back inside as he drives at Ruben Dias but the veteran defender does well to block him off
70' OH LUKAKU. OH LUKAKU. OH LUKAKU. The Belgian races at Eliseu before playing a superb one-two off Mkhitaryan and getting into a one-on-one with Svilar... he's offside but neither striker not goalie know that, and Lukaku once again fails to beat his young compatriot
69' Yellow for Eduardo Salvio as he pulls back Mkhitaryan in a bid to stop the Armenian as the latter embarked on one of his mazy, pacy, runs through the middle
66' Lukaku beasts pasts Eliseu like the latter doesn't exist... and you can't really blame the Portoguese left-back; as my colleague Shambhu just remarked - imagine that huge man-mountain running at you, full pelt, doing step-overs and what not. *shudder*
65' OH MY WORDS! RAUL JIMENEZ BUNDLES ONTO AN UTTERLY SILLY BAILLY PASS, HOLDS OFF SMALLING AND CURLS A SUBLIME SHOT THAT HAS DE GEA BEATEN ALL ENDS UP - BUT NOT THE WOODWORK AND IT BOUNCES OFF THE FAR POST!
62' Eric Bailly does supremely well to bully Raul Jimenez off his stride as the Mexican bundles his way into the box and soon enough United recover the ball.
61' Mkhitaryan is fed into the box with another of those deft Lukaku flicks but the ball's just got too much oomph on it for the Armenian to meet it before Svilar
THAT'S THAT AS MANCHESTER UNITED MAKE IT FOUR OUT OF FOUR IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE. THAT'S ALL FROM ME, ANIRUDH MENON....
Toodle-ooo
