93' Naughton tries from twenty-five yards, and why not. He wins a corner off Smalling's back for his troubles... OOO LA LA ROMERO! The corner floats across and Fer smashes it at goal where Romero pulls off stunning reflex save
91' Lukaku tries to bully his way to goal - but Ki does superbly to hold him off and start a Swansea counter, but unfortunately it all peters out as Rangel's cross bounces out of play on the other side
88' Fer does superbly to turn away from Matic and then release Tammy Abraham down the right flank... but United are quietly determined to keep the clean sheet
86' WOOT WOOT! Luke Shaw is coming on! Anthony Martial is the one coming off - he's been alright tonight - but the United fans break out into the Tony Martial again and that should keep his spirits high
83' Naughton sends in a decent looking ball - with three in white inside the United box - but Romero does ever so well to come out quickly and claim it without hesitation. Great authority of his own area shown there by the Argentine no.1
81' Lindelof, bursting with confidence, weaves into the box before laying it off to Blind. He then jumps for the Dutchman's cross but Mawson gets to it before him. Lingard runs onto the rebound but smashes a shot straight at the goalkeeper
79' Routledge finally gets Blind one-on-one and draws a silly foul from the Dutchman - who gets booked for it - from the setpiece the ball is worked into the box where Van der Hoon claims a push on him by Blind, but the ref waves play on
77' Swans are trying to put up a fight, but they will be wary of what happened when they tried to force the issue at 1-0 down in the Premier League this team against this opposition, 3 goals in the last ten minutes, meant the score ended at 4-0!
74' OOOH! Romero is called into action for what feels like the first time and he has to push a forceful Abraham shot away... from Cluca's corner, Tuanzebe picks up a yellow whilst giving away a freekick at the edge of the box... Clucas will fancy this....
70' McTOMINAY AGAIN! He smashes a header at Nordfeldt that the keeper can only push back into the area - where Tuanzebe sends an awkward high into the Wales sky from two yards out
69' OH McTOMINAY! A lovely little dummy from Lukaku allows the young man to power inside but he's met by van der Hoorn and all he can gain is a corner.
66' Ah, to be a Swansea defender. Rashford gets taken off - to a collective sigh of relief - only for Romelu freakin' Lukaku to come on in his stead. Oh, and the excellent Ander Herrera goes off for.... Nemanja freakin' Matic. For Swansea, Leroy Fer sprints on in Roque Mesa's stead
65' Rangel tries to play in Routledge on the edge of the box, but Herrera reads it superbly and sticks out a leg that in one move turns defence into attack for United
63' OW OW OW! Blind plays in a lovely little ball that Lingard runs onto, and on a hattrick he unselfishly tries to pick out Rashford in the middle - instead of going for glory - but the ball fizzes harmlessly across the face of the goal
WHAT A GOAL! OH, WHAT A GOAL! Darmian whipped in a sublime cross that Lingard ran onto and guided superbly into the bottom corner from the edge of the penalty box. Sublime stuff from both Lingard and Darmian, there
That is that, as two quality Jesse Lingard goals give a very professional, very assured, Manchester United a comfortable 2-0 win on the night.
