FULL TIME! Manchester United 3-0 Partizan Belgrade. Solskjaer must be happy with the way his team has performed tonight, as they were a lot more of an attacking threat and showed a lot more dominance. A lot like the United of the old days and not the current United. A great win for the Red Devils to see them go top of their group and pass through to the knock out stages of the Europa League!

United could be five up here! Great play from Rashford, with good timing of the pass and run, but he passes to Martial, who flicks the ball over the keeper, but it goes wide. This is what United fans want to see, attacking, pace, dynamic football in the final third, something they've been missing this season.
33'

What a goal from Martial!! Amazing footwork from Martial, his first touch is excellent, his second even better and a clinical finish as he took on all the defenders and slides the ball in the bottom corner. A beautiful goal.

25'

A collision with Mctominay sees Zdjelar receive treatment, looks like he received an elbow to the face, unintentionally.
