54 mins: There's been little to report from the opening minutes of the second half at the Liberty Stadium which means Lucas and Benteke have failed to make an instant impression. Indeed, the Liverpool defence and midfield are still failing to cope with the wet conditions and an underhit pass from Lovren moments ago nearly allowed Ayew to dart in for a third.

The sides are out at Old Trafford for Manchester United versus Leicester City.One of them are the Premier League champions in waiting.The other are Manchester United.

KICK-OFF: Here we go! The biggest 90 minutes in the history of Leicester City has begun. It's Manchester United who get the ball rolling in attacking the Stretford End, but it's the away fans at the other end of Old Trafford who are in full voice.

74 mins: Fingernails are bitten and breath is held as the ball lands on the chest of Marouane Fellaini inside the Leicester six-yard box, but before the Belgian is able to get a shot away, he is penalised for a foul. It's the Manchester United man's last contribution, and Ander Herrera will take over for the final quarter of an hour.

78 mins: We're entering that final period where a next goal - if there is to be a next goal - will surely prove decisive. It nearly arrives from a most unlikely source, Manchester United's Chris Smalling. Up from the back, the defender's far post header clipped the outside of the woodwork and flew out of play.

Sam Dymond1 May 2016 15:41

80 mins: This should come as no surprise, but Leicester City are defending resolutely, heroically and in numbers - and as United pour more numbers forward to overpower their visitors, the opportunity for a counter-attack grows. There still seems like there may be a twist in his remarkable story.

86 mins: RED CARD!A nervous few minutes for Leicester City fans may now be unbearable. They are going to have to watch their team see out the match with ten men after Danny Drinkwater was shown a second yellow card and then a red. The midfielder was penalised after pulling back Memphis Depay as the Manchester United substitute burst into the box. The challenge took place right on the edge, but the young Dutchman is convinced it should have resulted in a penalty - it was very, very close.
