Great chance for Spurs! Delightful chipped ball over the defence by Kane which finds Eriksen but his lob is over the bar, good effort from the visitors.
7'
Good run from Shaw and he puts in a great cross but Vorm is equal to it and makes a strong jump and catch.
10'
Kane does well to win the ball and heads towards the byline but Smalling shows strong defending to shepherd the ball out of play for a goal kick.
13'
Spurs with a corner but nothing comes of it. Fairly tight opening exchange in Manchester with that Eriksen effort the only moment of note so far.
16'
Romero with a mislaid pass and kicks the ball out for a throw in a dangerous position but Tottenham can't make anything from that gift from the Argentinian goalkeeper.
19'
Walker defending well and keeping tight to Young and has so far kept the United man quiet.
20'
A late flag against Dembele brings a sigh of relief for United as the Spurs man was running clear through on goal, it was a tight call but eventually the flag went up.
22'
Goal! Manchester United 1 - 0 Tottenham (Walker OG) United have the lead in certainly an unusual manner. United broke forward and the ball was then played in low across the box to an unmarked Rooney, he took a touch, but after that touch Walker in an attempt to tackle Rooney ended up putting the ball into his own net
25'
Jan Vertonghen is booked for a foul on Rooney giving away a free kick in the process.
26'
From that free kick United have Mata and Memphis Depay looking to strike, it's Mata in the end but the wall does it's job.
29'
United with all the pressure at the moment, that goal really shifting momentum to the home side.
32'
Past the half hour mark and Tottenham with it all to do, Old Trafford is not the happiest of hunting grounds for Spurs so going a goal behind certainly wont help matters.
35'
Ten minutes left in the first half and Tottenham have retreated in their shell a bit and will need to open up more if they are to find this equaliser.
38'
Good build up play between Morgan Schneiderlin and Memphis Depay but the final ball into the box from Depay is too strong and goes straight through to Vorm.
41'
Pace and tempo has certainly dropped off in the last few minutes almost as if both teams are settling for this score at the break.
43'
Approaching the break and it seems like both sides are now just waiting on the referee's whistle for half time.
46'
The second half gets underway.
48'
No changes at the break but with Spurs having no strikers on the bench who can they turn to if they need a goal later on?
50'
Memphis Depay tries his luck from outside the box but the effort is too high to trouble the Spurs goal.
53'
Tottenham make their first change as Nabil Bentaleb is replaced by Ryan Mason.
55'
Referee Jonathan Moss has a quiet word with Pochettino on the sideline after an outburst from the manager, all is forgiven and they move on.
58'
Good keeping from Romero who gets down low well to claim a free kick into the box, not had much to do so far Romero but he's done what's needed to be done.
60'
Huge cheer from the home crowd, not for the departure of Michael Carrick, but for the entrance of Bastian Schweinsteiger as the German makes his debut.
63'
Kane goes forward and attempts to play it out wide to Eriksen but it's nowhere near it's target and the ball goes out of play.
65'
Great chance for Young who forces a good save from Vorm, the shot from the edge of the box went through a crowd of players and Vorm couldn't have seen it till late so he did well to get down and stop that one.
66'
More good keeping from Sergio Romero who comes to intercept the ball and claim it after Spurs had put in a low dangerous cross.
67'
Ander Herrera comes on for Memphis Depay.
68'
Spurs with a change as Erik Lamela replaces Mousa Dembélé.
69'
Bastian Schweinsteiger goes straight into the book for a bad foul on Nacer Chadli.
72'
Tottenham still not looking like they can grab that equaliser and are looking slightly off the pace, but only being a goal behind you can never write a team off.
75'
Dier is booked for a foul on Young, Young makes a meal of it though and probably didn't help Dier's cause.
76'
That foul led to United having a free kick on the edge of the box but Rooney can't make anything from it and hits the ball high over the bar.
77'
Eric Dier is soon replaced after that booking and replaced by Bamidele Alli.
79'
Matteo Darmian goes off after a decent debut and is replaced by Antonio Valencia.
82'
Into the final ten minutes and Smalling makes a brilliant challenge on Chadli as the Spurs man made his way into the box and was looking to get the ball into a crowded box but Smalling stood tall and did well to make the tackle.
85'
Five minutes remaining and Tottenham still searching for that goal but it's not looking great at the moment for the visitors.
88'
Sergio Romero with a good save as Kane headed towards goal but Romero is soon into action again as he palms away a stinging long range effort.
89'
Mata is booked for a bad foul.
90'
Bamidele Alli is booked for stopping a United break.
90'
There will be four minutes of stoppage time.
93'
Tottenham have finished strongly but they've just not been able to cut it in front of goal today, United weren't a much better side today but once you get the lead it's up to your opponents to take that from you.
94'
Full time! Both sides had their moments but in a tight encounter United edge out Tottenham thanks to that first half own goal.
