25'
Mata tries to release Martial down the right but Can makes an important interception.
24'
That is not to underplay the de Gea save - the Spaniard made so much ground to get to the ball and scoop it off the line.
23'
SAVE: De Gea saves a weak shot from Coutinho after a great run from Sturridge. But he should have hit the ball first time with his left rather than his right foot.
22'
Jordan Henderson having a great game at the heart of the Liverpool midfield - he's the man keeping the tempo so high.

GOAL: Liverpool 1-0 Manchester United. Sturridge nets, even though de Gea gets a hand to the ball, for his first career goal in the Europa League.
18'
PENALTY: Clyne gets the wrong side of Memphis and The Dutchman pulls the England full-back down in the box and it is a penalty to Liverpool.
17'
Moreno breaks, and finds Sturridge, but he checks and then Lallana fails to notice Henderson behind him and the chance is lost.
16'
There is precious quality on show so far - United are getting ten men behind the ball when Liverpool are in possession, with Martial the lone striker.
15'
Can shrugs off Mata, but United are defending resolutely and Rashford can break with the ball. Klopp is unhappy with Liverpool's sloppiness.
14'
Lovren finds Sturridge with a long ball, but Schneiderlin makes a good challenge and Sturridge is left looking in vain at the Spanish referee for a foul.
13'
Fellaini is unable to control a low cross from the left by Rojo. If the Belgian could trap the ball properly, United would be quite a threat!
12'
The legends of United are in among the United fans at Anfield. Denis Irwin, Gary Pallister and Andrew Cole are having a boys night out.
11'
Lovren is unconvincing with his header but Fellaini is unable to gather. But United have looked most threatening with the long ball to Fellaini, rather than the pace of Martial.

Lallana puts pressure on Memphis and the ball goes back to de Gea, who miskicks to the cheers of the Liverpool fans.
8'
A confident touch for Mignolet as Mata overhits his free-kick into the Liverpool area.
