UPDATES:

FIRST HALF UPDATES:

0' KICK OFF

0' Rooney and Rashford get us underway!!! An FA Cup final awaits! United in red, Everton in blue.

3' Martial ducks, dips, dives, and dodges his way through the Everton defence past three players before winning a corner.

4' AN ABSOLUTE SHOCKING ATTEMPT AT DEFENCE! THE BALL IS CLEARED LONG AND BOTH CARRICK AND FOSU-MENSAH MISJUDGE THE BOUNCE FOR LUKAKU TO RUN ONTO, RUN PAST DE GEA, AND IT ENDS UP BEING WAYNE ROONEY BACK ON THE LINE TO CLEAR!

10' United have looked bright on attack through Martial and Rashford and it's taken some desperate Everton defending to get the ball clear and United build to attack again.

11' LINGARD IS PLAYED THROUGH OVER THE TOP BUT HIS SHOT IS STRAIGHT INTO ROBLES' CHEST! VERY GOOD BALL AND VERY GOOD CHANCE!

15' Defence has been non-existent in this game for both sides. Lukaku sprints past the defence but his shot is saved by De Gea from a very tight angle.

20' The game has been camped around the Everton box and we're passing it around well and playing good balls through! Martial is played through the defence but his shot is way too high and the chance is wasted!

30' The game has slowed down and Everton have gotten more into it. De Gea with a few easy saves to make but we're still waiting for a breakthrough.

33' MANCHESTER UNITED GOAL UNITED SCORE AND GUESS WHO!!! FELLAINI SCORES AGAINST HIS OLD CLUB! MARTIAL DOES WELL ON THE WING, DROPS HIS MARKER BEFORE CUTTING BACK FOR BIG FELLA AT THE NEAR POST WHO MAKES NO MISTAKE ON HIS LEFT FOOT!

45' HALF TIME

---

45' No changes from either team as we get underway for the second half!

53' The volume hasn't dropped at all in Wembley and there's been good interplay from United, like the end of the first half. Lingard has the ball come to him on the edge of the box from a backheel but he slices his shot well wide.

55' EVERTON HAVE A PENALTY! IT LOOKED LIKE A GOOD CHALLENGE FROM FOSU-MENSAH AND HE WINS THE BALL BUT THE REFEREE HAS GIVEN A PENALTY! IT'S UP TO DAVE NOW!

56' DAVE SAVES! LUKAKU PLACES IT LOW AND HARD TO THE GOALKEEPER'S RIGHT BUT HE GETS DOWN AND GETS A FIRM HAND TO IT!

56' MANCHESTER UNITED YELLOW CARD Rooney was booked for dissent appealing that penalty decision.

59' It's all Everton now and United need to weather this storm and get a second.

61' MANCHESTER UNITED SUBSTITUTION Valencia ON || Fosu-Mensah OFF

61' TFM has played well today but now we've got more experience at the back. Hopefully we can see this out.

62' It's literally all Everton right now. Cleverley turns Valencia on the wing and swings it into Lukaku but the ball is headed over the bar.

65' Fellaini should have a second! A combination of Robles and Jagielka on the Everton goal-line are needed to keep the ball out!

65' On further replay, it's a Jagielka handball that keeps the ball out! WE SHOULD HAVE HAD A PENALTY!
