34 mins - West Brom 0 Manchester United 0: Before going down to ten men, United were content to just keep the ball and capitalise on any West Brom errors which may fall their way. That strategy has, understandably, been stepped up somewhat with the Baggies looking a threat.

HT: West Bromwich Albion 0 Manchester United 0

Louis van Gaal has a half-time headache to alleviate after Juan Mata's two bookings, in the space of 158 seconds, saw the Spaniard handed with his marching orders. Jesse Lingard has looked a menace for the Red Devils but West Brom are in the driving seat ahead of the second period.

45 mins - West Brom 0 Manchester United 0: Will be intriguing to see how Louis van Gaal counteracts Juan Mata's shock dismissal. So far at least, the Dutchman has resisted the temptation to make a substitution but the Baggies are yet to fully test United's resolve.

50 mins - West Brom 0 Manchester United: Anthony Martial bamboozles his way through the Baggies' defence and lays it on a plate for Marcus Rashford but the young striker sees his shot deflected wide. That was possibly United's best chance of the match so far as they look to continue the pressure on rivals City for a top four berth.

56 mins - West Brom 0 Manchester United 0: Jesse Lingard continues to be a pest for the visitors, this time ghosting in on the inside of West Brom's penalty area and curling it over the cross bar.

GOOAALL!! West Brom 1 Manchester United 0 - Salomon Rondon

66 mins: They've huffed and puffed but finally West Brom forge a way through the United defence. Salomon Rondon picks up the ball in the visitors' box, corkscrews his body and fizzes it past David De Gea. How will ten-man Manchester United respond now?
