Commentary
PENALTY FOR MANCHESTER UNITED! Cunha surges into the area and looks to line up a shot, but Kamara races in to make a very ill-judged tackle. It's clearly a penalty for United, and the referee immediately points straight to the spot! Does the comeback begin here?
Former Villa man Tielemans slides a ball across for his captain Bruno Fernandes to strike, but the latter shoots well wide of the left-hand post from around 20 yards out.
There's a long way to go, but Villa have scored more goals than United have had touches in the opposition box - none. Still, Carrick's side fought their way back from two down against Roma, so perhaps they can do it again?
Either home or away, this is the earliest Manchester United have ever been 2-0 down in a Premier League game. Jackson's goal came after just three minutes and 40 seconds.
Old Trafford is in mutinous mood now, as Villa fly forward again. Jackson, Alysson and Manzambi all link up outside the area, before an angled shot from Kamara is charged down. Manchester United then manage to survive the subsequent corner.

GOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!! When Yoro fails to fully clear with a header from McGinn's free-kick into the area, the ball falls nicely for Aston Villa. Though Alysson's initial shot is parried away by Lammens, the rebound is safely tucked away by Jackson! It's another goal for the Senegalese striker, and that makes it 2-0 to the visitors already!
