  • 53'
    Close! Sanchez bisects two men with a beautiful pass and Shaw is in behind. He crosses low but Schindler hacks his delivery away before Lukaku can convert.
  • 53'
    Mooy absolutely clatters Sanchez on the edge of the box but he gets the ball and the referee waves play on.

    What a block! Sanchez bundles towards goal and looks set to have a free effort from six yards but Smith does well to block his shot away.

  • 45'

  • 45'
    Smalling does well to prevent Depoitre from getting a clear header st goal after good work from Smith down the right.
  • 42'
    Lukaku looks to chase a ball in behind but Lossl is off his line quickly to gather. He's had a good game so far the Huddersfield goalkeeper.
  • 40'
    Smalling meets a free-kick from the left at the far post but Lossl makes the save.
  • 37'
    Lingard gets in behind and draws Lossl off his line but the goalkeeper pushes the England man wide and manages to cut out his attempted cross.
  • 36'
    Depoitre gets across his man on a corner from the right but his attempt is blocked and United eventually clear.
  • 34'
    Sanchez picks the ball up in midfield and drives low at goal but Lossl makes a comfortable save.
  • 33'
    Phillip Billing is replaced by Aaron Mooy for Huddersfield. Billing has looked like something of a liability today and you feel he may have ended up getting himself sent off.
  • 32'
    Huddersfield's game plan looks a simple one, get the ball wide and try to find their strapping front men in the box.
  • 29'
    United want a penalty once again as Sanchez is felled in the box but the referee once again waves away the protests. That looked to be the correct decision this time. Try telling Jesse Lingard that though.
  • 28'
    Mata is booked for catching Quaner. File that one under 'he's not that kind of player'.

  • 23'
    Billing is booked for bringing down Rojo in the middle of the park.
  • 19'
    SURELY A PENALTY? NO! Lossl's punch is unconvincing and it comes to McTominay on the edge of the box. He scuffs his first effort up into the air and as he looks to head the ball goalwards he is clattered by Kongolo. United ask the question but the referee says no, instead awarding a drop ball.
  • 17'
    Van La Parra hauls down Valencia out on the right but the free-kick comes to nothing.
  • 15'
    Billing is lucky to avoid a booking after clattering McTominay.
  • 11'
    Smalling meets a free-kick from the right but his header is tame and Lossl gathers easily.
  • 8'

  • 7'
    Lukaku looks to slip Mata in down the right but the Spaniard has just strayed.
  • 6'
    Lingard looks to cross from the right but it gets deflected away for a corner, which Huddersfield clear.

    Plenty of early possession for United, but that's to be expected.
  • 2'
    A shaky start from Scott McTominay as he surrenders possession cheaply with a sloppy pass, but nothing comes of it.

    Huddersfield get the game underway here.
