8: There's a slight break in play while Romelu Lukaku receives treatment after a clash of heads with Wesley Hoedt. Physios and a stretcher are on the field.

11: Romelu Lukaku is still on the ground. He's talking but there is not a great deal of movement. The Manchester United medical team are rightly taking their time with this one.

13: Old Trafford rises as Romelu Lukaku, with an oxygen mask, is stretchered off the pitch after a five minute stoppage. Marcus Rashford comes on in his place.

15: We're back underway. Ashley Young wins a free kick from Sofiane Boufal and Manchester United work it to Luke Shaw on the opposite flank. After a burst of pace the left-back fires in a low ball but Marcus Rashford is unable to get to it.

17: Southampton launch the ball forward to clear their lines and inadvertently set up a 1v1 race between Shane Long and Victor Lindeloft. Long gets their first and draws a free kick on the right side of the box.

18: James Ward-Prowse takes the free-kick and tires to beat David De Gea at the near post but the Spanish goalkeeper reads his intentions and turns the ball behind.

19: Manchester United clear a corner and Juan Mata finds Marcus Rashford who runs past two players like they are not there. He finds Henrikh Mkhitaryan who looks to return the favour with a cross in the middle but he misfires.

21: Dusan Tadic tries to slip a pass to Shane Long but Phil Jones stretches and turns the ball behind for a corner. James Ward-Prowse delivers the ball to Wesley Hoedt and he heads wide with a free header. He should get that on target.

24: Shane Long has not scored in 27 games but my word he is trying. Back to the action and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg  is the first player to get a yellow card by illegally stopping Luke Shaw in his tacks.
