Lukaku missed an easy chance inside four minutes on Saturday....find the net please
There have been announcements on the screens of severe weather around. Dark clouds are around but starting to clear
Mourinho has told MUTV that players will play 45 minutes each..perhaps less
Already too many commercials
Good evening, Dave. I'm here to join you for the match before the one I watch in Houston on Thursday.
Finally back
Real in white
United in black
Back from the commercials as all the Pre-match pomp and circumstance takes place. Love the new United kit.
I Shaw don't know where he went. He may gone by September 1st.
We are off
Who is the McTomain that is starting on the right side of midfield.
Off from Utah
A very good evening, chaps. Who is this Manchester United that you speak of? ;-)
Lindy offside off a nice through ball from FM Radio.
I hate this other guy on the mic... he is so anti United every single time I here him talk
Good evening, mate. What a pleasant surprise to read your comment. I surely thought you would be watching those hometown dates. Does any of them call Fred Town their hometown?
Welcome Bob
I don't think I can stand this bloke the whole match
I agree. Starting to sound like Bob.
The Hometown Dates were splendid tonight. Would you like to hear about them? Plenty of drama!
Fortunately the air conditioner is drowning out the sound so I can't hear him.
Thanks, but I will take a rain check on that.
Oh - Hominy Grits not to far away.
OH!!!McTomain poison nearly scored with a shot from just outside the box that went inches wide.
So, where's Zlatan? I might have to turn over to Kate + 8 if he doesn't feature tonight.
Do you think he could score with just one good leg?
Alright, MUR - you win the pun war there. I shouldn't even try.
Dave and I would be watching Coronation Street if we wanted dram, so that we can stay loyal to Manchester.
Thanks, mate. I try.
United are not too impressive so far
Agreed. Is it the altitude?
Not a lot of action so far. I reckon a re-run of Storage Wars might be in order.
Elizabeth loves that show. I know they run a marathon of those.
It's amazing to think that when we were kids the only live matches we'd get every year were the League and FA Cup Finals, the Home Internationals and the World Cup or European Championship qualifiers. Now we get this one live. Incredible!
Shut this guy up!!!
I can't bear to watch it, actually. Clutter drives me crazy.
Agreed. Live T.V. has come a long way. I remember those days.
You're taking drama over clutter?
United are second best
Perreira fumbles a long range Real effort then gathers at the second attempt.
Agreed, but they're playing like third best.
Oh - The Chunk just short of latching onto that cross from F-M.
The Chunk is not on the correct wavelength as he fails to connect on a pass from FM Music.
Oh - Plata nearly got through the United defense there but was put off by Lindy.
Lindy with a last ditch block to prevent a Real lead as the win a Real corner.
It is Real that United suck this evening.
United have created nowt
He's no longer allowed to be called the Chunk!!
Svarino, the young Venezualan has been lively as he win a Real corner.
Moron on the Mic
F-M runs with the ball right to a defender and says.... take it from me
Why can't I call him The Chunk anymore?
Pogba too slow and ball gets taken away
Real break from that and score!!
Useless by United
BUGGER !!!! SALT LAKE TAKE THE LEAD
That wasn't good by Lindelof...just let his man go
Decent shot by Lukaku but straight at the keeper
Savarino, who has been running the show, with a nice through ball as Jones was out muscled and out fought by Luis Silva who shot the ball past the on rushing Perreira.
Offside by at least a Chunk.
Stevie Nichol not liking Lukaku... he is a RED and Lu was a BlUE
Jones looks like he is still in LA
BOOM BOOM, BASIL
Wahay - Miki equalizes for United! Polite applause from the United faithful.
GOAL!!
MIKI WITH A NICE FINISH!
A good move by United as these two bozos just kept talking not thinking there is a game going on
STOP ASKING AND ANSWERING QUESTIONS!
COMMENTATE ON THE MATCH
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! MIKI TIES IT UP FOR UNITED AGAINST THE RUN OF PLAY. FM MUSIC TO LINDY TO THE CHUNK TO LINDY TO MIKI, WHO PLACED IT IN THE CORNER FROM 25 YARDS OUT.
Real have a wave of subs about to come on
Healy usually not that bad but he's been unlistenable with this bloke next to him
half hour is pretty stupid!!
I know they have a game soon but still
WTF! A REAL CIRCUS AS THEY ARE MAKING WHAT LOOKS LIKE ELEVEN SUBSTITUTIONS AT THE HALF HOUR MARK. I've never seen anything like it.
Agreed. Then why play this match?
Silly season in Salt lake.
Lovely finish from The Chunk! You'll be hoping for more of the same this season.
GOAL !!!! THE CHUNK WITH HIS FIRST UNITED GOAL AS THEY HAVE COME FROM BEHIND TO LEAD 2-1.
YESSS
Account open by Lukaku
He would not have scored in the Prem
He almost blew it
It is first time
Nice long possession from United that culminated in a through ball from Miki to the Chunk, who split a defender and the keeper to easily score.
Just wide by the Chunk as he nearly had a second
Is this lead tainted as both goal came after the Real starting lineup had been subbed?
This guy needs to SHTUUUM
Miki offside from a through ball.
Are you referring to Adrian Healey or the guy from Venezuala?
Please stop talking...just commentate
Half time
United not impressive but lead 2-1
No stoppage time as United lead 2-1 at the half as they came from behind. Both goals came after the starters were subbed.
Did you see the leak of United's third shirt
It is gray with United's Holy Trinity statue at the bottom
I just got out of the loo, but I will rewind and check.
I just checked and noticed that . Eagle eyes. Thanks for the info.
Bloody hell - the Deuce missed the kick off. Poor show. Amateur hour.
And ESPN miss the kick off .... for the second match in a row!!
BLOODY HELL !!! THE COMMERCIAL BREAK ENDED NINE SECONDS AFTER THE SECOND HALF STARTED. EVEN FOX ISN'T THIS BAD.
You need time to tell all the changes... so lets go back to the match after the kick off!!
Are you Fox in disguise
Adrian Healey just said that United made eleven substitutions.
Healey said back in the nick of time...no... nine second late
They did that in the last match
No they are worse.
I don't get why every time there is possession from the keeper, the teams have to build from the back... you get yourself in trouble!! GO LONG ONCE IN A WHILE
The offside flag was raised as there was a karate chop in an illegal position.
He was onside there
STOP CHATTING AND COMMENTATE
Agreed. A textbook shouldn't dictate EVERY possession.
They need to SCHTUUM ! Is that possible for them?
Elizabeth wants me to record the match so she can check to see if I get filmed. What is she going to make of the chitter chatter?
SHUT UP... winning the Europa League is good
Seriously.... I can't take these guys much more
They do know there is a match going on in front of them!!
Really rubbish commentary.
Is it annoying you as much as it me?
I want to let ESPN know... this is atrocious
It sure is and we wonder why Adrian Healey is on a third rate American network instead of announcing in the U.K.
Call the guy's name who has the ball, then who he passed it to
It is simple
I'm off to watch something with the missus, lads. I'll see you Wednesday evening. Cheerio!
Mata is off... I hope his ankle is ok and it is just precautionary
OF course ESPN didn't get the change
Take care Bob
Another substitution for United as Mitchell, a twenty year old from Manchester is on , but who came off?
Cheers, Bob. We need to tell him it's Thursday, not Wednesday.
He came on for Mata. It really does Mata that these announcers are late on every bloody thing.
United have been so poor tonight
No one seems to be trying
I'm not sure whether it's the altitude or attitude.
SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poor foul from behind by Valencia. Isn't that his second in the last few minutes? BLOODY HELL HE'S OFF!
Are you kidding me.... ref sends him off.... FIVE MINUTES after the tackle!!
THIS IS REAL RIDICULOUS! I thought they already made eleven substitutions. Here's another five.
This match has been a bloody joke. Looking for better from the Manc Derby.
Of course, Adrian didn't tell us until after it happened but it was a great cross by Rashford and hopeless by Fellaini
Adrian just did some commentating on the match.. Real go very close
Mulholland nearly nearly made it Desmond with a shot from just outside the box.
That's a bloody miracle. The AC just stopped running , so now I will be forced to listen to this.
That was a nice run by Martial and he almost found Rash in the middle
A pass is karate chopped into the Real box and cleared for a United corner.
Great cross... Smalling misses a sitter of a header
Is that Real's sixteenth substitution?
A horrible miss from Smalling.
United have been so poor there has been nothing to comment about
If United play like this when you're watching them...they are going to get crushed
Mitchell with a great run... Martial with a chance... HIT THE TARGET
Not even close with the shot
Agreed. I haven't found anything to comment about. Hopefully, the poor performance is because their thinking about that match instead of this match.
Fellaini.... there is no one in the box!!!!
I hope there isn't any stoppage time. I can't take any more of this and at night as is.
OMG... the linesman and referee has been just as bad as the players and commentators
Another useless cross to absolutely nobody.
Why make a substitution with less than two minutes left in the match?
There is no way United will win the league this year
BUT...I am still picking them!
I'm loyal!!!!!
Romero forced into a near post save that results in a Real corner as we enter stoppage time.
A pointless substitution as Wasabe is on for the Karate Kid.
I hate stuff like that from Jose
Off goes Martial for a defender
Will they be better than the sixth place position from last season?
Just blow up ref!!
That's it
Very disappointing by United
I am off to bed
Have a GREAT TIME and send pictures
Nite
You should sleep soundly as the final whistle is blown.
Good night. Thanks and I sure will.
That's it for me as ten man United hold on for an unimpressive 2-1 win.
CHEERS!
