80' Fernandes comes close, but probably should have laid it off
75' Goal for Fulham!
It's atrocious defending from the Reds - the likes of Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka lose their heads and United are punished for not killing the game off.
74' Greenwood misses an absolute sitter
The English youngster has struggled this evening.
67' United should be two in front now
It should be two, and you have to wonder whether United will come to rue these missed chances.
60' Carvalho comes very close

Fernandes' free-kick looks to have gone in from the angle on Sky Sports, but it's actually just past the post.

43' Fernandes has a go - well-saved from Areola

He should score, but the effort is straight down the throat of De Gea.
35' United struggling to put pressure on
United have looked to add a second but their chances to do so have been minimal, with mistakes in the build-up most times. Cavani has been the most influential man in the final third by a comfortable margin.
25' Quite uneventful since the goal
Fernandes came close with a scorching hit from the edge of the box a moment ago, but other than that, the Reds haven't truly threatened to add a second as of yet.
15' GOAL MANCHESTER UNITED
Just moments after a penalty denial, Fernandes flicks it round the corner for Cavani, who lobs Areola from long range, sending Old Trafford into raptures.

Fulham looking for an upset
An upset over second-placed United would give them some serious capital going into the Championship next term.
United looking for recovery
Ahead of a Europa League final in two weeks, United will be looking to recover some of their previous momentum with victory against Fulham.
On a separate note, this will be the first time in fourteen months that the Reds will welcome supporters to Old Trafford, with 10,000 tickets being sold as part of the government's partial re-opening of sports venues.
How the land lies...
Fulham, having confirmed their Championship status for next season, will merely be attempting to force an upset in their final weeks of the campaign.
