23' Aarons' long shot over the bar

Buendia’s curling free-kick fails to find a team-mate as it’s headed out of the penalty area, but Aarons is able to recollect it and smash a speculative effort from some distance. It fails to trouble Romero as it sails high over the crossbar, allowing both sides to take a short drinks break.

43' Maguire makes timely block

Cantwell gets free on the left inside the penalty area and centres a pass beautifully for Rupp. The striker takes a bit of a touch to set himself before firing to the far post - but the United captain steps across heroically to stop the near-certain goal!

51' GOAL! Norwich 0-1 Man Utd (Ighalo)

Shaw gets into the penalty area and loops an off-balance cross onto the penalty spot. A falling Mata is able to back down his man and get a touch to poke the ball through the line for Ighalo - who finishes easily high into the net!

75' GOAL! Norwich 1-1 Man Utd (Cantwell)

Hernandez combines with Buendia in midfield, before the ball is filtered to Cantwell. The goalscorer strides forward before catching Romero off-guard by smashing a low, driven effort into the bottom-right corner from well-outside the 18!

89' Red Card! Klose sent off

A pass is fizzed into the feet of Fernandes just outside the penalty area, and the midfielder has the presence of mind to flick it behind for Ighalo. The striker is through on goal but brought down on the 18 by Klose, who is immediately given his marching orders!
