  • 50'
    Bruno Fernandes!!! What a goal!!!!! United counter after Maguire wins the high ball, the goes to Greenwood on the far side and Bruno Fernandes volleys home the cross. Ryan had no chance and that is that!

    HT: Brighton 0-2 Man Utd!! Half-time at the AMEX Stadium and United fully deserve their two goal lead. Greenwood put Utd ahead after 16 minutes and then Fernandes, who hit the post 0-0, made it two before the half hour. Brighton have done little going forward and United have been far superior in the first 45. Back in a bit for the second period!

  • 39'
    Rashford hits one wide of the goal from 20 yards.
  • 35'
    This has been an excellent performance by Solskjaer's men so far. Brighton have hardly had a sniff and United are just keeping the ball.
  • 32'
    Brighton win a free-kick, but MacAllister's free-kick from this near side comes to nothing.
  • 30'
    Shaw certainly looked to be a bit offside, but maybe the match director froze the image slightly after the ball was played.
Goal
Goaaaaaal!
de Manchester United en el 29'
  • 29'
