64 mins: It's a game that both sides dare not lose in their pursuit of their respective goals - Premier League survival and Champions League football - but the reality is that a draw is little use to either. Such mindsets has now meant that the contest has entered the nervous period; only an individual error or a moment of magic can win this now.

72 mins: GOAL! NORWICH 0 MANCHESTER UNITED 1:He's done it again! It's Juan Mata's fifth goal against Norwich, and he has scored everytime he has faced the Canaries. Sebastien Bassong completely misjudged an innocuous ball down the right touchline, and his mistimed header allowed Wayne Rooney through on goal. The United forward didn't have the pace to race through and take the chance himself, but he nevertheless managed to brilliantly hold play up, turning away from Russell Martin and the recovering Bassong, to lay a ball into the path of Mata. Arriving from midfield, one touch was all it took to sweep low and hard past John Ruddy at the near post. The chase for the Champions League continues!

74 mins: There are some nervous faces on show around the home stands of Carrow Road now. As it stands, the Canaries are two points from safety with two games to play, and the team directly above them will have a game in hand. A draw wasn't good enough before kick-off, but it is now.

78 mins: More substitutions as the game enters its final minutes. Morgan Schneiderlin has taken over from Jesse Lingard in the Manchester United midfield while Patrick Bamford and Graham Dorrans are on for Norwich for fresh attacking impetus; Jonny Howson and Cameron Jerome are the men to make way.

85 mins: A glorious chance for Manchester United to seal victory. The Norwich defence was as responsive as my laptop as Wayne Rooney held the ball up and then fed the overlapping Schneiderlin, but the former Southampton man screwed his low shot wide of the far post. Alex Neil's side still have hope.

87 mins: Adnan Januzaj has only made two appearances for Manchester United in 2016, and looked absolutely delighted - stripped and ready on the touchline - to be getting his third. That was, until, his manager changed his mind, and decided Timothy Fosu-Mensah was a better option for his final switch. As the the young Belgian made his embarrassed way back to the dugout, Anthony Martial was unable to hide his amusement. It's glad the Frenchman has something to smile about after his disappointing start to the day.

90 mins: Five minutes of injury time for Manchester United to hold on. Five minutes of injury time for Norwich to save a point - and possibly their Premier League status.
