Well, after a dodgy start, United played very well. The passing of Carrick, Pogba and Mata was much too much for Fenerbahce, and United move to second in the group, behind Feyeroord on head-to-head.
Thanks for reading, and goodnight.

FULL-TIME: MANCHESTER UNITED 4-1 FENERBAHCE
90+1
Rooney, who's played quite well tonight, wins a header and Martial slides him back in. But the ball doesn't have quite enough pace and nor does Rooney, so he comes back inside whereupon he's tackled.

There shall be two added minutes.

Lovely from United, taking a corner short, Mata to Martial and back again. Mata then finds Memphis, who flicks behind his standing leg back to Mata, who sets back for Fosu-Mensah, just outside the box. He gets a reasonable connection on his shot, but can't find the power to seriously mither Demirel.
89'
Mata, who's had a nice game, robs Topal at inside-right and has men to his left, but instead goes around the outside and has his shot blocked.

Emenike has made a difference, and Fener are playing with more conviction now that the game is over, Souza turning outside the box to crack a low shot that De Gea has to get down to quickly.

GOAL! MANCHESTER UNITED 4-1 FENERBAHCE (VAN PERSIE) Martial decides not to run at Skrtel, finding Rooney who's tackled, and Fener break, Topal escorting a ball over the top and out to the left for Emenike. Bailly goes out to cover but does nothing to stop the low cross, and Van Persie, who's got the wrong side of Shaw, slots home a poacher's finish. Old Trafford seems to enjoy it, Alex Ferguson in particular.
80'
Another sumptuous ball from Carrick finds Memphis, out on the left and close to the by-line. He thinks about crossing quickly for Rooney but decides the route is blocked so dithers but with purpose, beating his man along the chalk before running out of space.

But look at this! Carrick strides forward and flips a lovely ball into Memphis, who funnels onto Mata, doing his best to accelerate through the middle. He sits the keeper down, looking left and shooting right, but Demirel recovers well to save with his feet.
78'
There is not all that much coming to pass.

Van Persie's shirt is ripped so he gets a new one, while Fosu-Mensah replaces Pogba - hopefully we get to see him play midfield, which is his position, rather than right-back, where he can do a job..
72'
Lovely from United, Rooney dropping deep and flicking a pass around the corner for Mata who feeds Memphis. You can probably guess the rest, but in case not, Memphis ruins everything with a lazy, inept pass back inside.
72'
Dundallk lead Zenit 1-0. That is remarkable.
71'
Rooney lasers at pass out to Mata on the left, and he cuts back to meet the arrival of Martial. But Skrtel does just enough to get in the way.
70'
Another change for Fenerbahce: Koybasi replaces Sen.
69'
Sener, who's been Fener's best attacker, skirts around Martial. But Martial gets back at him, sliding in to cede a throw-in. That's probably the highlight of his performance as far as Mourinho is concerned.

Lingard wins the race to be withdrawn for Sunday, Memphis replacing him; he may well start ahead of Martial.
