Nice from McTominay, winning the ball and breaking through midfield before sliding to Rashford. His first touch is nice, putting him in a race with the defender that he knows he'll win, but Stojkovic is out sharply to smother his shot.

But it's Young who goes, billowing the side-netting.

Zdjelar fouls Rashford just outside the box, left of centre....

This is the thing with Rashford - he can score the hard ones. He just needs to improve at the easy ones.

GOAL! Manchester United 3-0 Partizan (Rashford) United have had their full-back high all night, leaving the two centre-backs, Fred and McTominay to cope. So Young is in space when Mata drives a high pass out to him, his cushion back to Rashford is nice ... and what a finish he applies, flinging himself into a rising left-footer that flies high into the roof at the near post. It reminds me a little of Cantona's goal at Wimbledon on the first day of the 96-97 season; brilliant.

Fred, who might be the most careless passer I've ever seen, passes carelessly, putting Maguire into trouble. But he gets out of it, just, with Soumah hassling.
48'
Asano and Zdjelar combine to hack McTominay as he slides between them, but United can't make anything of the free-kick.
47'
Oh my word.

We go again.

N.B. Partizan are not all that good.
20:49
That's United's best attacking half since they did Chelsea on the break in August. And, more impressively, they've not been left space to attack on the counter, but probed with good passing and movement. The finishing still needs attention, but Mason Greenwood is an assassin and Anthony Martial has so much ability.

Half-time: Manchester United 2-0 Partizan

Nice again from United, this time down the left, and when the cross comes in, Rashford can't quite connect with a leaping volley. On another night he'd have had a hat-trick, if he was a different player who was a better finisher.

There'll be two added minutes.

United are playing with such confidence here and Martial hares away from his man, waits for Mata to draw alongside him, and rolls him in. He tries to square, can't quite find Martial, and in the end Young wallops wide.

This is good.

Nice from Martial, coming deep to snap a ball in behind for Rashford. He's wide left of the box and can't manouevre his body into a position from which he can shoot accurately.
41'
United knock it about the back four.
39'
As for Martial, he scored a brilliant solo goal for United last season, at Fulham - a game they'd have won anyway - then vanished at the end of the season, when they needed him. He's got elite-level ability but, unlike Greenwood, he's only a part-time killer.
