End of match

  • 93'
    FT: Man Utd 2-0 Granada!! (agg 4-0)! All over at Old Trafford and United were comfortable in the second leg in all honesty. Cavani's early goal ruled out any real chance of a fightback. Yangel Herrera was once again Granada's best player, but he couldn't get a goal and Vallejo headed into his own goal in stoppage time.
  • 93'
    Granada's run ends in the quarter-finals but it's been a superb effort from them.
  • 92'
    Three added minutes. Granada deserve a goal for their efforts over the two legs, but United just have more quality.
  • 92'
    Own goal by Granada!!! Telles' cross into the box looks for Mata and Vallejo heads the ball into his own goal.
  • 91'
    What a save by De Gea!! Machis sends a cross into the box for Yangel Herrera and his header is well stopped by the goalie!
  • 90'
    Granada get a corner, but nothing comes of it.
  • 90'
    Granada already had a tough ask going into this one and when Cavani scored early on, that was that.
  • 89'
    Attempts: 9-10.
  • 86'
    Diaz has a shot now which is straight at De Gea!
  • 84'
    Molina gives it to Machis, but his cross is too strong for teammates to get on the end of.

  • 63'
    Granada do not look like they be able to score even one.

  • 45'
    HT: Man Utd 1-0 Granada (agg 3-0)!! Half-time at Old Trafford and it's been straight forward for the hosts. Granada started well, but Cavani's volley after six minutes has left them with little chance. They continued to attack for a bit longer, but now United are hardly being threatened. Granada lost Gonalons to injury and it's unlikely they will score three in the second period. Back shortly!

Start of match

  • PRVW
    The players are out here!
  • PRVW
    Granada make three alterations. German Sanchez, Foulquier and Machis replace Duarte, Diaz and Puertas. Granada came from behind to beat Valladolid 1-2 at the weekend.
  • PRVW
    Five changes for United from the first leg Telles, Tuanzebe, Fred, Matic and Cavani come in for Shaw, Maguire, McTominay, Rashford and James. Man Utd beat Spurs 1-3 at the weekend.
  • PRVW
    11 degrees in Manchester for this one and it's dry.
  • PRVW
    Istvan Kovacs of Romania is the referee for this one while Bastian Dankert of Germany is the VAR. The AVAR is Polish and the fourth official is Swiss so we have a mixed officiating team.
  • PRVW
    A reminder that United are missing Shaw, McTominay and Maguire through suspension. Domingos Duarte is absent for the same reason for Granada.
  • PRVW
    Granada XI: Rui Silva (GK); Neva, German, Vallejo, Foulquier; Machis, Herrera, Montoro, Gonalons, Kenedy; Soldado.

  • PRVW
    Man Utd XI: De Gea (GK); Telles, Lindelof, Tuanzebe, Wan-Bissaka; Fred, Matic, Pogba; Cavani, Fernandes and Greenwood.
