Goal! Manchester United 0-1 Barcelona

Had to wait a long time for that. Run-up takes an age too, stutters his way to the ball. De Gea gets a big hand on it, can’t keep it out though. Barcelona 3-2 up on aggregate.

Kick Off!

Incredible atmosphere at Old Trafford, fans know just how big a match this is for the club. A win would launch them into the Carabao Cup final with maximum confidence, defeat could potentially start to derail things.

Starting XI

Sancho gets the nod for Man United, with Garnacho having to settle for a place on the bench. It’s a midfield pairing of Casemiro and Fred again, with Sabitzer among the substitutes.

Martinez returns from suspension in defence alongside Varane, meaning Shaw shifts back over to left-back. As for Barcelona, Busquets and Roberto come into midfield with Pedri and Gavi out.

Balde starts at left-back, with both Alonso and Alba on the bench. Lewandowski leading the line as ever.
