Manchester United have appointed Eric Ten Haag as their new manager
Follow the updates live as Arsenal face Manchester United in a match that could prove decisive in the race for the top four of the Premier League. The Gunners have three points and a place above the old rivals United in the table and will strive to overtake Tottenham Hotspur and qualify for the Champions League with a victory over the Emirates. Mikel Arteta’s team breathed new life into their campaign with a 4-2 victory away to Chelsea on Wednesday after a series of three defeats threatened to end their hopes.
United are now striving to achieve a similar result after their humiliating 4-0 defeat by Liverpool in the middle of the week, and three points would return Ralph Rangnik’s team to the race. This week, United announced that Eric ten Haag will become the club’s next permanent manager at the end of the season, and securing a Champions League qualifier will be a boost for Dutchman Old Trafford’s project.
The scale of the task before Ten Hag became clear from the performance of United at Anfield and the team of Rangnik will have a number of players who could now fight for their own future at the club. Both teams have been battling for consistency in recent weeks and a draw would not contribute to either side, with Tottenham facing Brentford in a match later tonight.

I have no words, this happened after Nketia had an earlier chance, which De Gea saved well.
Saka was sent off and all United players simply stopped playing.
VAR decided it was offside, but are now checking to see if there is a penalty with this challenge from Saka from Teles.

Ronaldo puts the ball on the road again to create an opportunity, but the rebound is not kind.
United are not sleeping as Sancho enters the penalty area and then he and Ronaldo call for a handball. It was checked by VAR and no penalty was given, the experts are convinced that it is a hand game.
Cedric passes the ball and Sancho attacks. He breaks through the players and Diallo hits a stunning ball that hits the windows. That would be an absolute cracker!

Arsenal 1-0 Manchester United, 20 min
Sancho wins a corner with quick legs, and Untied takes it short. Fernandez seems to sink him into the box, but his touch is too much on him.
How good is Nketia? His dancing legs pose such a threat that Elanga fouls him to win a free kick just outside the penalty area.
Odegaard takes it, but overtakes the beam and so United seems to be creating something of their own half. Ronaldo gets a side kick, if he scores today, he will win his 100th Premier League result.
The striker is involved in all the good work of United so far, flawless in the midfield.
