    Lartey: This game is a perfect display of both teams' biggest problems this season; scoring goals. It's a joke really how both Manchester United and Chelsea are plain toothless upfront! So many wasted chances both sides due to a lack of quality finishing.

    Tim: Less than a week before the end of the season and I still don't know what to make of this United team. They been thrashed more than once, humiliated by their rivals and played some very very ordinary football. Yet somehow they are likely to finish third and still competing for their second trophy of the season.

    Stu: I can't believe how wasteful United have been in front of goal this season, just wonder how many points it's cost them.

    Chelsea left-back Lewis Hall has a lovely delivery up his sleeve and he whips in a tempting, inswinging corner, from the left but Wesley Fofana just can't get his head to it.

    Endless opportunities. Chelsea just can't find the net. Lewis Hall has been getting into great positions, Mudryk as well, but De Gea has been on point for those.

    United look dangerous on the counter as well. Really end-to-end, loads of opportunities.

    It's not been full of quality, but it is fast, frantic and really enjoyable.

    Chelsea's Noni Madueke goes to ground in the penalty area and wants a penalty. Frank Lampard chats to the fourth official, but nothing given.

    Mikey: If you are a centre forward and you see how many chances this United team creates, you must be salivating hoping your agent gets the call.

    Considering the mess Manchester United were at the end of last season in the Ralf Rangnick era, considering they started the season with two losses and then had the Cristiano Ronaldo saga with him criticising the manager and his team-mates in a TV interview, this has been some turnaround from Erik ten Hag in his first season at Old Trafford.

    They are just over half hour away from a return to the Champions League.

    Seeing that Kepa save again, it's a great one.

    Eriksen is a few yards out, in a central position, the cross is just behind him and he can only get a partial contact to send it goalwards but Kepa flings himself at it from nowhere to get a glove to it and keep it out.

    Aaron Wan-Bissaka strikes for Manchester United, blocked, Christian Eriksen just can't convert from Tyrell Malacia's cross from right in front of an unguarded goal, with the ball then saved by Kepa Arrizabalaga, before Casemiro strokes an effort just wide.

    Manchester United have come out this half meaning business and looking to wrap this one up quickly. Chance, chance, chance.

    Manchester United fans have started to sing about the FA Cup final, which is only nine days away now.

    That eagerly-awaited meeting with Manchester City should be a thriller.

    City are going for the Treble, which United are the only English team to do. United can win both domestic cups in the same season for the first time.

    Chelsea have a chance and it's a deflected effort by Mykhailo Mudryk, with David de Gea getting down low to push the ball around the post for a corner.

    Chelsea make a mess of the set piece though.

    Chris: Chelsea have spent a fortune and have a totally unbalanced side lacking any cohesion or team spirit-a team of individuals with little or no passion for the cause-good luck to whoever is brave enough to take on this mess.

    So close to a third goal for Manchester United. Jadon Sancho, who set up the second goal, nearly gets another assist with a lay-off to Bruno Fernandes.

    The Portuguese midfielder blasts it goalwards, with it bouncing off the angle of post and bar.

    DW: 2-0 down but arguably one of the better performances by a Lampard team, especially with a young team.

    Chris: Poor defending and even worse finishing from Frank Lampard’s Chelsea.

    Matthew: What a strange half. Chelsea carved Man Utd open several times, brighter in midfield but never looked like scoring. Man Utd were boringly efficient. Bizarre.
