Giggs wins a corner.

Nani does well to beat his man, but then normal service is resumed and he makes a mess.

Porto's best chance. Mariano skips past Nani and his low cross finds Lisandro but he goes for placement and it's right at Van der Saar. If he'd have hit it hard, it would have been a goal.

United hesistate momentarily as the ball ricochets inside their area, but Vidic heads calmly back to Van der Saar.

Mariano tries to go around the outside of Evra, but Evra is too quick.

Excellent challenge from Anderson who is subsequently fouled.

Great cross from Cissokho and superbly hooked away by Vidic.

Porto's kit looks a bit like a supermarket bag.

Good block by Fernando also.

Rooney has a chance to shoot, but dithers and is crowded out.

3-1 to Arsenal, penalty from Van Persie.

Nani on for Berbatov.

United almost appear to be playing 4-3-3 now, with Giggs and Ronaldo either side of Berbato, with Rooney in midfield.

Second change for Porto - Rodriguez replaced by Farias.

Berbatov and Alves have a little tussle and it's a free kick to Porto.

Helton scrambles away, ball goes back to Giggs, and he wins a throw.

Hulk hits it hard and over the wall, but straight at the keeper.

Porto free kick, 30 yards out, just right of centre. Good position, this.

Giggs injudiciously passes the ball back to Van der Saar, creating a mini-panic and Evra concedes a free kick, hurting himself in the process. He is bleeding after bashing his head, but seems ok.

Carrick gives away a needless free kick in centrefield.

Headed clear, Ronaldo out-jumped by Alves.

O'Shea found by Rooney whose cross is blocked, and United have a corner on the right.

Rodriguez holds the ball and gives it to Lisandro, whose cross is headed by Mariano, sneaking between Vidic and Ferdinand, but he gets under it and the ball loops harmlessly to Van der Saar.

Giggs' kick easily held by Helton.

Cissokho adjudged to have fouled Ronaldo. Free kick on the right, 40 yards from goal.

Giggs wrestled to the ground by Meireles.

Great ball from Giggs to Berbatov, but he's not quick enough to capitalise.

Great jump from Evra but Rooney overruns the ball and looks like he didn't much fancy the tackle. Not one to shy away, he might still be feeling the knock he took in the first half.

Meireles shoots and it's a little high.

It's raining in Porto more than in Buddy Holly's heart.

Porto kick off and United attack immediately, but Berbatov's shot hits Helton. That seems to be what happens, he's not too hot at making saves.

Television has just shown that Ronaldo's strike was from just shy of 40 yards. Ridiculous goal, and for tonight he is worth every last piece of preening smuggery.

For United, Berbatov's ability to hold the ball is helping them ease pressure and allowing Rooney, Ronaldo and Giggs - all of whom look lively - to get forward in support. Porto will be looking to get Hulk on the ball more than they have and to examine United in wide areas, especially on O'Shea's flank, although he has done well so far.

United deserve to be ahead. They started well, have passed the ball better than Porto and have looked solid at the back - Porto haven't really created a chance. That said, the home side were gathering momentum when Lucho got injured, the break in play as much as the enforced change interrupting their flow.

What a miss! O'Shea flicks on Giggs' corner and Vidic somehow sends the ball over the bar from a couple of yards out.

Ronaldo is sent away down the left by Giggs and wins a corner. He is playing very well tonight, dangerous across the width of the pitch.

Free kick 30 yards out will be taken by Meireles, but it's rubbish.

Porto break again with Rodriguez and Vidic decides bringing him down is worth the inevitable yellow card.

Bruno Alves heads wide from Meireles' free kick. It's not that close, but had it been, Van der Saar owould have been nowhere near it.

Ball breaks to Carrick but his shot hits his own player.

Ronaldo robs the very dodgy Helton, who thought the ball was going out for a goal kick, but it wasn't, and United have a corner.

Mariano shoots and the ball goes high and wide but not that high or wide. Rooney looks like he may have to go off.

Great turn from Rooney but he is dispossessed and looks a little hurt. It must be those yellow boots.

Ronaldo pressures Rolando and the anagrams produce a ricochet that gives Porto a throw close to their goalline.

Lucho's inury slowed Porto's momentum and United are back on top again. The game isn't as open as last week, which will please United.

Great interception by Vidic and he nails Hulk at the same time, fairly.

Evra robs Hulk and United break.

Giggs' well-controlled volley from Berbatov's cross on the right hits Helton.

Bad news for Porto - Lucho looks like he's going off.

Rooney is wearing yellow boots. The last of the back street footballers - as he was described by ex-manager David Moyes - would get a slap were he to venture into the back streets wearing those.

Raul Meireles gets his first real action, but his cross is cleared. Porto are well on top now.

Rooney loses possession allowing Cissokho to break, but the attack breaks down.

Van der Saar's off-white shorts don't go very well with his black jersey. Tsk tsk.

Giggs clears Lisandro's cross from the left.

Lisandro tries a scissors kick, helped on his way to ground by the ever-obliging Ferdinand but Van der Saar saves.

Hulk tries to slide Lisandro through, but a combination of Vidic and Ferdinand crowd him out.

Hulk wins the ball and looks for Lisandro but Vidic is in quickly.

Cissokho crosses from the byline but it's easy for Van der Saar. Michael Carrick is down and the ball is kicked out. Mike Phealan takes the opportunity to offer Ronaldo some advice, which presumably he'll ignore - I would if I were him.

Hulk's flick is cut out by Vidic.

Berbatov - who is holding the ball very well - wastes possession, sending it back to Van der Saar.

If latter-career Fergie is anything to go by, United will now sit back. That's certainly how they played it last season.

O'Shea and Berbatov between them manage to waste a good position down the right.

Anderson looks like one of those kids' toys that bounce back up the second you knock them over.

Late tackle on Anderson by Lucho in the United half, free kick.

And yes I know were he out wide he wouldn't have been there to do that. Not for the first, second or ten thousandth time, Fergie was right and I was wrong.

GOAL! Brilliant hit from Ronaldo, taking the ball 40 yards from goal in centrefield, advancing a stride and whacking it past Helton high to his right.

Rodriguez takes the ball well in his stride, but is run off it by Anderson.

Great interplay between Ronaldo and Evra down the right, but Evra overruns.

Cissokho lunges in on Berbatov but no foul.

Cissokho late on Rooney. Free kick.

Ferdinand comes across to cover Vidic - that's what they've missed.

Hulk zips it in low and Van der Saar saves low to his right.

Porto have a free kick wide on the right about 40 yards from goal.

Porto shocked United in how they set about them straight from the off last week and Carrick appears not to have heeded the warning, caught in possession in his own half.

Rooney's ball in cleared, and taken down beautifully by Berbatov, but the move comes to nothing.

Good football by United down the right hand side, throw in.

Giggs is on the left for United, Rooney on the right.

United kick off.

In his pre-match interview, Fergie said that Ronaldo would be playing up front. I must say I don't get this. His only in-form player is Wayne Rooney, and it is he who makes United tick. This takes him away from the middle of the pitch where he can be most influential, and makes it easier for Porto to pick up Ronaldo, who is more elusive coming from deep.

United will feel that Porto played as well as they can last week and still didn't win, whilst they can play much better. Conversely, Porto will feel they should have won at Old Trafford, and United's form has scarcely improved since then.

Porto are unchanged from the first leg, and United are far from it, which tells you plenty about how each side feels the game went. United's lack of athleticism in midfield allowed Porto to run through them, which explains the inclusion of Anderson. Whether he'll be enough remains to be seen.

And the subs: Porto: Nuno, Stepanov, Guarin, Mariano Gonzalez, Costa, Madrid,Farias. United: Foster, Neville, Evans, Nani, Scholes, Tevez, Macheda.

Teams are: FC Porto: Helton, Sapunaru, Rolando, Bruno Alves, Cissokho, Lucho Gonzalez, Fernando, Raul Meireles, Lopez, Hulk, Rodriguez. Man Utd: Van der Sar, O'Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Giggs, Carrick, Anderson, Rooney, Berbatov, Ronaldo.

If tonight's game is as good as the first leg, we're in for a treat.

Scholes replaces Anderson for United. He's done well.
