Live updates of Man United vs. Nottingham Forest, Premier League highlights
HALFTIME: Far from a classic performance, United enter the interval 2-0 up thanks to Rashford and Martial.
Min 43: NO GOAL! The visiting festivities are short-lived, as the goal is correctly disallowed for offside thanks to Boly’s touch. It remains 2-0.
minute 42: United can be saved here. There is a VAR check for a possible hand, and it also seems to be out of play!
Min 40: GOAL! The forest is back! From a free kick, Yates steps away from him to celebrate his header, though the finishing touch appears to have come from Willy Boly.
minute 33: After a Ryan Yates shot from distance made David De Gea uncomfortable, United respond through Rashford once again, who finds himself back on the right flank and gets past Renan Lodi, who enjoyed a memorable night here with the Atlético de Madrid in March, with ease. However, the England international can’t find the last correct ball.

Without a doubt, a unique stop from the goalkeeper.

minute 29: Rashford seems to be in the mood, and was just on a rising counter-attack before being hauled back by Orel Mangala at half-time, with the Forest midfielder picking up a yellow card. The Red Devils have been gifted their leadership, and they can consider themselves lucky that Henderson can’t play today, and they are struggling to generate concerted pressure, but look very threatening at half-time.
Min. 22: GOAL! It’s 2-0! After Awoniyi breaks the forehand at the opposite end of the pitch and feels he was unfairly pulled back, United immediately breaks the other end and takes a commanding lead early on. A ball that searches for the left flank finds Rashford, who enters and becomes Martial’s provider. His effort is relatively poor, but Wayne Hennessey has a docile right hand that just deflects the ball into his net.

Min 19: GOAL! It’s a well worked corner routine from Christian Eriksen to Rashford, and United are 1-0 up! The Denmark international plays along the ground until around the penalty spot, where the Red Devils’ number 10 peels away from his man and slices the ball back through the goal.

minute 13: The visitors have not given up any more chances and are slowly starting to figure out how to make their own with a couple of passes that almost slipped through United’s makeshift defence. Lingard is the key creative force, but the quality touch usually provided by Morgan Gibbs-White already looks like it could be a problem here to make these moments count.
Minute 6: Forest, hit with his own injuries, has started brightly. There are no clear chances, but Taiwo Awoniyi is running and getting on Varane to prove how exhausted the France international is. At the other end though, Malacia have the first significant shot, hitting the post from the left after Rashford’s early effort was blocked.
KICK OFF: We’re on the move here in the rainy Northwest.
5 minutes to KO: Anthony Martial, fresh after five weeks out, has a great chance to grab the starting job as United’s number 9 and lead this club back to the Champions League in the post-Cristiano Ronaldo era. The Red Devils now sit just four points behind Spurs with two games in hand, and with very winnable games against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Bournemouth to follow.
20 minutes to KO: While Varane may have returned to the XI a bit ahead of schedule, after playing in a World Cup final just eight days ago, Lisandro Martinez is still absent from the United squad. The central partner, of course, was in the winning team in Qatar, although he did not participate in the final. He became the fifth United player in history to lift the game’s biggest trophy, with manager Ten Hag understandably “proud” of Martinez.
40 minutes to KO: Dean Henderson is denied the chance to prove a point today as United’s loan is unable to play his parent club. The goalkeeper is in fine form, having pulled off a series of super saves to secure a win over Liverpool ahead of the World Cup break. He also denied Declan Rice and Wilfried Zaha from the penalty spot to win against West Ham and Crystal Palace.
1 hour for KO: United team news is out and it’s an impromptu defense as Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Raphael Varane, Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia start. The Athletic reported that illness in camp forced Ten Hag to select the back four.

1 hour 20 minutes to KO: United academy product Jesse Lingard returns home tonight and is a man on a mission after an unpleasant past season with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick. The England international spent the back of the 2020/21 season in fine form on loan at West Ham, but the Red Devils blocked a permanent transfer, instead opting to keep him for the final year of his contract.
Lingard told the Telegraph: “They were false promises. I don’t know why I wasn’t playing. I don’t know what the problem was, whether it was politics or whatever. I don’t have an answer to this yet.” day. I didn’t even ask. I would prefer someone out of respect for me being there for so long to tell me: ‘that’s why you’re not playing’. I never got that.”
1 hour 40 minutes to KO: Since Forest were last relegated from the Premier League, these two teams have not met in either cup, making this the first meeting in a generation. United are on a six-match winning streak against the East Midlands club, the most recent being an infamous 8-1 win at the City Ground. Forest’s last win here came 28 years and 10 days ago, via a Stuart Pearce winner.
2 hours for KO: Hello and welcome to The Sporting News’ coverage of Manchester United and Nottingham Forest, live from Old Trafford.
