Hello, welcome to our live coverage of the EFL Cup semi-final between Manchester United and Nottingham Forest. Join me as we experience the all-Premier League EFL Cup tie that was one-sided in the first leg.
- Here is what people are saying about the game.
- Manchester United will face Newcastle in the EFL Cup final.
- Game over!!! Wembley, Wembley, we are the famous Man United and we're going to Wembley.
- What a save from Tom Heaton in goal for Manchester United, Sam Surridge skies the rebound.
- Marcus Rashford with a real assist this time, low cross into the box and Fred finishes with his thighs, yes you heard me right, his thighs. Oh how dare I not mention the initial pass from Bruno that started it all.
- Goalllll when it rains it pours. Fred the red scores for the Red Devils. 2-0 on the night, 5-0 on agrregate.
- on FPL that counts as an assist for Rashford. His deflected shot was pounced on by Martial.
- Goalllllll!!!Tony Martial, the man from France, he scores again.
- Erik Ten Hag clearly wants to win this game, he has called on the cavalry. Jadon Sancho, Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford triple sub.
- Garnacho is really rinsing Neco Williams; he is taking him to the cleaners.
- VAR check for a red card to Neco Williams, but there was nothing to be found.
- Manchester United playing like they do not need a win. Nottingham Forest playing like they know they cannot score three goals they bring themselves back in contention. The point is it has been a very boring game so far.
- Second-half is underway
- Half-time !!! Goalless at half-time, if it ends like this Manchester United are heading to Wembley.
- Weghorst!!! what a strike, denied by the woodwork. Failed the test, but I have to praise the handwriting. Beautiful header.
- The Championship is greater than the Champions League you cannot convince me otherwise, I just watched Brennan Johnson dribble Casemiro to the ground.
- Let me step out to see if pigs are flying, I just saw Anthony attempt to go to the byline.
- Garnacho has been lively, save for goals, Marcus Rashford has not been missed.
- No way that is a penalty; the ball clearly bounced onto Neco Williams' arm outside the box.
- Dennis has looked very lively for Forest
- Did Anthony just step on Dennis or is he play acting?
- Ouuuu Garnacho twinkle-toed his way through The Tricky Trees' defence. He was nudged off the ball but the referee says no penalty.
- Sabitzer who moved the other way round, Munich to Manchester, is in the stands watching the game.
- On account of the lack of major action to report in this game so far, you might want to know Cancelo has gotten his first assist at Bayern. Pep would not miss him, they said.
- The home side dominating early proceedings, Anthony has been lively, maybe because he has concentrated on incisive passing and not dancing.
- The game has kicked off!!!!
- Manchester United hope to get the job done against Nottingham Forest for a date with Newcastle in the final
- Manchester United, thanks to goals from Marcus Rashford, Wout Weghorst and Bruno Fernandes took a 3-0 lead at the City ground to give themselves an advantage coming into the second-leg at Old Trafford.
