A fine comeback from the Ukranian side to take the lead to the Stadio Olimpico in three week’s time. But with that away goal for AS Roma, this tie is finely poised

FT: Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

A job well done for Manchester United in the end who defended well to keep Sevilla at bay. However, there is no away goal for Jose Mourinho’s men in Seville. United have slight advantage at Old Trafford but Sevilla are very much in the game especially having not conceded that away goal. It’s nicely set up  for the second leg

2 minutes of stoppage time added on at the end of the 90 minutes

85’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

End to end stuff suddenly. United with some last ditch defending to deny Sevilla the opener before they go down the other end through Martial. His cross is overhit but Rashford rescues it to carve out an opening after combining with Pogba only to fire wide

80’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

Mourinho with two positive changes thinking he can nick a winner here right at the death. Rashford and Martial will offer plenty of pace down the flanks and it may something that is required to make the breakthrough tonight

GOAL! Shakhtar Donetsk 2-1 AS Roma

Fred fires home a sublime free-kick to give the Ukrainians the lead in the tie for the first time

70’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

Sevilla comes close with a sumptuous cross across the face of De Gea’s goal but no takers from the home side at the end of it. United now playing more on the counter as Sevilla press for a winner. Dangerous game

65’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

The defences have been on top in this one. Both teams taking turns in attack but chances have been far and few. Sevilla have edged matters but isn’t reflecting on the scoreline

60’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

Good spell of possession from Manchester United, but the Red Devils are lacking purpose in their play. Sevilla are able to clear their penalty area as we await the first goal of the evening

55’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

No major chances as Sevilla continue to have more of the ball. United happy to sit back and thwart the home side. Not a lot of goal-mouth action in the second half so far

GOAL! Shakhtar Donetsk 1-1 AS Roma. Facundo Ferreyra scores!

50’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

Once again Sevilla staring the half on the front foot but United being very solid at the back. Mourinho will be disappointed with his side’s attacking endeavours though as they have offered very little going forward

Second half is underway at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán

40’ Shakhtar 0-0 Roma

35’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

Sevilla on the attack now but United defending resolutely. Players are taking a tumble for fun as the game has too many stoppages for anyone’s liking. 10 minutes to go in the first half and this has been a very tight affair. It appears that both teams are keen to keep a clean sheet

30’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

Sevilla holding firm as United have their best spellof the game. Sanchez is starting to get on the ball more often and trying to find the killer pass from a deeper area. Sevilla’s attempts to counter-attack have been smothered by United. The game needs a moment of magic to spark it to life

25’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

United with a good spell of possession leading to a chance for Romelu Lukaku who fired his volley over. The away side have grown into game after a slow start.

Yellow card for Steven N’Zonzi for a high boot on Alexis Sanchez

20’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

Paul Pogba is on the pitch after being dropped by Mourinho as he replaces the injured Herrera. There is no change in shape as the Frenchman slots in the position vacated by Herrera. It will be interesting to see how the change affects the game. He will give United more attacking impetus, but Matic may have to do all the dirty work now.

Paul Pogba is set to come on for Manchester United

Ander Herrera has gone down holding his hamstring. It doesn’t look good for the Spaniard who looks set to come off

15’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

United have got into their compact shape and are doing well to close the gaps for Sevilla to play in. After a nervy start, Jose Mourinho’s men are a bit more settled. However, Sevilla are alert to any counter-attacks from the away side. Alexis Sanchez who tries to get at the end of one is closed down quickly. A cagey affair so far

10’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

The tone of the game is set. United are sitting back waiting for an error from the home side, while Sevilla are keen to get on the front foot and test the struggling Manchester United backline. No major chances to report so far. As I type United have a corner

5’ Sevilla 0-0 Manchester United

The home side have started on the front foot. Luis Muriel forcing a fine save of David De Gea as United have been happy to concede possession early on. Jose Mourinho’s men are struggling to cope with Sevilla’s high press and thus are yet to make any attacks of note
