  • 89'
    GOAL! BASEL LANG! Scenes! The wing-back is on hand at the back post to tap home after an excellent low cross from Petretta.
  • 88'
    Ibrahimovic lashes over following Lukaku's knockdown, it's looking like there'll be no fairy tale goal here.
  • 84'

Substitution

at Manchester United
  • 74'
    Zlatan Ibrahimovic is introduced in place of Anthony Martial.
  • 73'
    Rashford shifts the ball inside and finds the side-netting. This one could go either way!
  • 72'
    What a chance for Basel! Oberlin is put in by Petretta and he can see the whites of Romero's eyes, only for Marcos Rojo to come across and make a terrific block. Top defending.
  • 70'
    Drama! Steffen goes down under the challenge of Marcos Rojo in the box and wants a penalty. The referee says no and does not book the winger for simulation, much to the disappointment of United's players.
  • 67'
    Off the bar! United fail to clear and Lang heads onto the bar at the back post. It wouldn't have counted though, with the referee having already blown for a foul.

  • 66'
    Pogba is replaced by Matic for United.
  • 64'
    Rashford replaces Lingard for United.
  • 63'
    More efforts on goal from the hosts. First, Steffen's effort following a corner is deflected goalwards by Oberlin but Romero gets there. Next, Steffen races forward on the counter and cuts in from the right but his left-footed effort flies just wide of the far post.
  • 60'
    Basel continue to grow in confidence and influence here, will United be made to pay for their profligacy in the first half?
  • 56'
    Steffen lets fly from just outside the box, but it is straight at Romero.
  • 54'
    Elyounoussi has a go from range but his low effort is easy for Romero.
  • 51'
    Fellaini heads the initial delivery clear, before Serey Die fires just wide from the loose ball.
  • 50'
    A chance for Basel to load the box as Darmian is adjudged to have handled.
  • 49'
    United get straight on the ball again. They want to win this one.
  • 46'
    United get us back underway!
  • 45'
    HT: Basel 0-0 Man Utd. Goalless at the break here, United have certainly had the better of things though, hitting the woodwork on two occasions.
  • 45'
    Off the bar! The corner breaks to Marcos Rojo 35 yards out and he takes aim but the ball is deflected onto the crossbar via a Basel head.
  • 44'
    Martial races clear in the inside left channel but he runs wide and Vaclik stays big to put the ball behind for a corner.
  • 42'
    Off the post! Martial cuts onto his right foot and crosses from the left and Fellaini just about gets a touch on it. Vaclik is beaten but the ball hits the post and goes behind.
  • 41'
    Oberlin back himself but he can only find the back of the stand. Very poor.
  • 40'
    Dangerous free kick for Basel now as Pogba commits and unnecessary foul 30 yards out, just to the right of centre.
  • 36'
    Almost all of United's best moments have involved Marouane Fellaini, little sign of a goal before half-time at the moment.
  • 32'
    Pogba steps up... but it never looks like dropping under the crossbar.
  • 31'
    Serey Die leaves Pogba in a heap on the edge of the box and United have a dangerous free kick. Pogba will fancy this.
  • 28'
    Lingard sees a low effort blocked away for a corner.
  • 27'
    Lang looks to swing the ball in again down the right but the ball is hacked away.
  • 26'
    United have had 64% of the ball so far. They're pressing and probing the hosts, but will they find a way through?
  • 22'
    Lang is looking like a decent outlet for Basel down the right but he hasn't quite been able to get his delivery right so far.
  • 20'
    United appear to be defending quite deep here as they look to combat the threat posed by Dimitri Oberlin's pace. The boy can certainly move.
  • 16'
    Fellaini gets there first to meet Blind's free kick from the right but he gets too much on it and it drops wide of the near post. Another good chance for United!
  • 12'
    Off the line! Fellaini meets Blind's cross from the left at the far post and his header has Vaclik beaten but Akanji is there to clear of the line! United should lead.
  • 12'
    Great chance! Romelu Lukaku is put in behind by Pogba and he shrugs of his man, his finish isn't up to scratch though and Vaclik makes the block.
  • 10'
    Basel put together a spell of pressure but Chris Smalling rises to head clear not once, but twice.
  • 7'
    A warning sign for United as Elyounoussi carries the ball from his own half to the United byline but it is successfully shepherded away.
  • 5'
    A good block prevents Lingard from slipping Martial in. A promising sign for United though.
  • 4'
    Basel have enjoyed a decent amount of possession early doors here, with United looking to get the ball forward quickly when won.
  • 1'
    Basel get us underway!
