Follow all the action as Manchester United host last season’s semi-finalists RB Leipzig in the Champions League group stage at Old Trafford this evening. 

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side enjoyed the perfect start to their European campaign, defeating Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 at the Parc des Princes. However, United have been in indifferent form domestically, taking just seven points from their opening five Premier League games. 

Leipzig lost their star striker, Timo Werner, in the summer but have begun the Bundesliga season in excellent fashion, currently topping the league under prodigious young manager Julian Nagelsmann, having dropped just two points thus far. Follow all the action below:

88’ - Man United 4-0 RB Leipzig

Fernandes wins the ball and plays in Cavani who scores, but he is offside. And he is actually offside this time, so it’s still four. Leipzig have totally collapsed in the last 10 minutes.
