Man United vs Roma LIVE: Champions League score and updates with Michael Carrick on brink

7 mins: First glimpse of Malen as he receives the ball and darts towards the box. For a second it looks like he has the beating of Maguire but he’s crowded out by red shirts in the end.

Nothing exhilarating yet but United have started pretty spritely.

Here’s Richard Jolly inside Old Trafford:

United fans protested the ownership inside Old Trafford as the players came onto the pitch, launching balloons coloured gold and green from the Stretford End.

3 mins: How United could do with a fast start tonight.

They enter the Roma final third for the first time tonight as Mbeumo slips Amad down the right, but his low cross into the box is cut out.

A perfectly observed minute’s silence at Old Trafford for Tenerife striker Jesus de Miguel following the shocking and awful news of his passing this morning.

It all feels a bit tense as the players make their way onto the pitch. As we’ve said a lot over the last few weeks, this could be decisive for Michael Carrick.

Just a few minutes until we get underway at Old Trafford.

It feels like every match could be Michael Carrick’s last at this rate, barring a miraculous turnaround in fortunes. Can tonight be the start of that?

All the action, coming up next!

Donyell Malen managed just 10 goals in a year at Aston Villa before he was shipped off to Roma, seemingly surplus to requirements.

He’s since become one of Europe’s most in-form sharpshooters, turning into a scoring machine. He’s bagged 11 goals in 12 games this term, including three in three Champions League outings.

Could he hammer the final nail in the coffin for Michael Carrick?
