Match report in news

  • 94'
    It's all over and Mourinho's United side have ground out a 2-0 victory! It was a valiant performance from Huddersfield who looked the better side for most of the game. There's only one statistic that counts though and Lukaku's clinical finishing punished Wagner's side.
  • 93'
    Lukaku makes way for Bailly and receives a standing ovation from the travelling support.
  • 90'
    The fourth official signals for 3 added minutes.
  • 89'
    Mounie attempts a spectacular bicycle kick but it goes left of the goal. If they're going to pull off a comeback the Terriers will need to score soon!
  • 85'
    And Sabiri almost scores with his first touch! Having only just set foot on the pitch, the substitute rose highest to meet a corner but failed to direct his header towards the goal.
