67 mins: Scott McTominay takes the ball into the West Ham box and has a shot deflected. Ronaldo is beaten to the ball and West Ham send it clear with a pass up to Bowen. He goes on a fantastic run driving to the box through midfield shaking off tackles on the way. There’s too many Manchester United men in front of him though and he’s eventually dispossessed by Mason Greenwood in the penalty area.

64 mins: Rashford gets stuck in immediately but can’t find a way around Vladimir Coufal. Man Utd then win a free kick and Bruno Fernandes curls one into the box. Alphonse Areola comes off his line and plucks it out of the air.

62 mins: Chance! the game seems to be heating up now. Diogo Dalot shifts the ball wide for Man Utd and flicks the ball across to the opposite side of the box. Anthony Elanga arrives late into the box and tries to hit a first time shot at goal. He shoots on the turn but pulls the effort wide of goal.

It’s his final effort of the game as Marcus Rashford comes on to replace him.

59 mins: Ronaldo wins a corner for Man Utd who fly up the pitch after a long ball from Fernandes is won by Fred.

Chance! Alex Telles swings the ball in from the corner and picks out Raphael Varane. He wins the header close to the near post and knocks it over towards the far top corner but the effort is off target and goes over the goal.

57 mins: West Ham have shown more fight so far in the second half. They’re seeing more of the ball in Manchester United’s half. Vladimir Coufal presses up the right wing and eaves a bit too much on Anthony Elanga.

Seemingly in response Harry Maguire clatters into Jarrod Bowen as the West Ham midfielder works the ball down the wing. West Ham win a free kick and Maguire is shown a yellow card.

54 mins: Chance! West Ham have a good opportunity to take the lead after they win a corner. The ball is swung out to the edge of the box where Jarrod Bowen takes it under control. He chests it down and whacks a right-footed strike into the side-netting of David De Gea’s goal.

51 mins: Save! Finally a shot on target. Fred comes up the pitch and drives towards the box down the inside left. He gets lucky as an attempted tackle brings the ball loose and bobbled it into the box. Fred stays on his feet runs at the ball and blasts a left-footed strike at goal and forces Alphonse Areola into a sharp save.

48 mins: Scott McTominay switches the ball out to the left wing where Anthony Elanga brings the ball under control and drives into the box. He shoots and his effort is deflected towards the byline. Alex Telles keeps it in play and attempts to slot it into the six-yard box for Ronaldo. He’s beaten to the ball by Zouma who knocks the ball behind.

Kick off: Manchester United get the second half underway. Neither team managed a shot on target in the first half as they lack composure in the final thirds. The first goal could be a crucial one, whichever way it goes it wll certainly open up the game and lead to more clear-cut efforts at goal.

It’s still goalless in the game between Brentford and Wolves as we approach half-time in that delayed match. Coming up later this evening: Southampton host Manchester City. City have an 11 point lead over Liverpool at the top of the table and can extend that to 14 before the Reds next play. Southampton can move into the top 10 if they somehow defeat Pep Guardiola’s men.
