16’: Antony takes a shot at goal, not enough power on it, easy save for Foderingham.
17’: Antony fires wide by a lot.
21’: Onana is down. Medics looking at him. Looks like he’s going to stay in for the moment.
24’: SAVE! Cameron Archer fires from distance through the legs of Maguire but Onana is alert and keeps it out!
28’: GOAL MAN U!! Scott McTominay chests the ball up in the air, somehow adjusts to make the volley, it deflects and takes the keeper flat-footed!

37’: Luke Thomas pulls down Antony by the shirt
38’: Højlund stretches out and can’t quite make the tap-in on the cross.
44’: Bruno Fernandes takes a free kick and hits the top of the crossbar!
45’: Auston Trusty carded for preventing Rashford from taking a quick throw-in
45+3’: SAVE! The ball deflects out to Højlund! He fires quickly but Foderingham was also off his line quickly and makes himself big to make the save.
HT Sheffield United 1-1 Manchester United Tied at the break but gotta say, Man U do not look like the better side.

51’: Sheffield United substitution: Rhian Brewster on for Oli McBurnie who comes off gingerly
52’: SAVE!! Brewster fires from distance, Onana parries up but it bounces up in the air! McAtee attempts to get the rebound but can’t jump high enough. Some check for a foul by Maguire on McAtee but the refs give nothing.
55’: Mixup in the back for Sheffield United! Foderingham and Trusty don’t link up and Rashford takes the pass, but the shot from Højlund is saved.
58’: MISS! Rashford puts it just a hair wide of the far corner!

82’: Jonny Evans seems to have hurt himself committing a tactical foul
84’: Man U substitution: Raphaël Varane on for Jonny Evans
84’: Sheffield United substitution: Bénie Traoré on for Gustavo Hamer
87’: Foderingham flat-footed again as the shot comes in but Garnacho only ripples the wrong side of the net.

90+1’: Garnacho puts his shot wide! Offside anyway but that was a bad miss.
