    • - Thank you for joining eurosport.yahoo.com for tonight's action. See you back here for UEFA Cup commentary on Thursday evening!
    • 90' And that is the last action of the night! The final whistle sounds and United are through to the knockout stages with a comfortable 4-0 win!
    • 88' GOAL! Ronaldo gets in on the act, racing on to an Evra throughball before turning Diakhate inside out with a trademark flick and unleashing an unstoppable effort past Shovkovskiy!
    • 85' United just cruising through the end stages of this game now....
    • 81' RONALDO! Oooh! How did he miss that?! Saha centres, but he somehow blazes over the bar!
    • 78' Nani! Oooh! Rooney breaks free before squaring to Nani, but his shot is saved by Shovkovskiy! Seconds later, the Portuguese fires a long range effort inches wide of the post! It's all happening!
    • 77' And Dynamo make a change... Bangoura comes on for Milevskiy, but you get the feeling it's all a little too late.
    • 76' GOAL! Another lovely move from United ends in Rooney volleying home a third from Nani's inch perfect cross! Easy now for United!
    • 73' A final change now for United... Jonny Evans on for Pique...
    • 71' Ghione forces Kuszczak into action! Milevskiy puts him in and it's a decent drive! But the United sub is equal to it, diving low to his right to get a crucial hand to it!
    • 68' United make another change... Tevez comes off to a great ovation and Louis Saha replaces him.
    • 66' United are all over Dynamo at the moment... another one surely isn't too far away.
    • 64' Brilliant from United, in particular Evra who manages to jink into the box after some superb skill... but instead of shooting, the Frenchman squares the ball to Tevez... his shot is saved... the ball falls to Simpson! Saved by Shovkovskiy again!
    • 60' Another chance for Dynamo... Markovic centres a dangrous cross... and Rincon is just inches away from sliding the ball into the back of the net!
    • 58' Lovely ball from Ronaldo to find Rooney on the left... his ball is picked up then by Tevez... but the Argentinian takes one touch too many and allows El Kaddouri to nip in and make the challenge!
    • 56' Corner for Dynamo now... could be danger for the hosts... Diakhate sees his effort deflected over the bar for another corner...
    • 53' Ronaldo's turn now to showboat on the same wing as Rooney minutes earlier... the Portuguese's final ball is put behind for a corner!
    • 49' RINCON! Oooh! Great hit from the substitute with his first touch! But Kuszczak is equal to it and beats the ball away!
    • 48' Brilliant skill from Rooney out on the far side... he dinks the ball up over El Kaddouri...
    • 47' Vidic is now sporting the skipper's armband...
    • 46' Three changes to tell you about at half time... Van der Sar is replaced by Kuszczak... and Dynamo have made two positive changes... Rebrov and Rincon on for Rotan and Gusev.
    • 46' Back underway at Old Trafford!
    • 45' There goes the half time whistle! And United head in two goals to the good after a comfortable 45 minutes.
    • 42' Ronaldo tries a trick out on the left wing... but he messes it up completely this time! Cue a few groans from the crowd.
    • 40' Chance for Dynamo! United fail to deal with a corner... the ball runs through to Rotan at the far post! But he can only find the side netting!
    • 37' GOAL! Correa loses the ball to Tevez in midfield and he immediately regrets it... the Argentinian bursts forward before playing a one-two with Rooney... the return pass puts him through on goal... and he makes no mistakes! 2-0!
    • 35' VIDIC! Oooh! His header glances just wide of the post!
    • 34' Evra does really well to win a corner off El-Kaddouri... United searching a second.
    • 33' Diakhate goes into the book for having a little too much to say to the ref...
    • 31' GOAL! UNITED TAKE THE LEAD! There's an element of luck to it, but Pique won't be complaining as he heads home! Carrick gets to a free-kick to head goalwards... but the ball hits Tevez on his back... it loops over to the far post where Pique climbs above his marker to thump a header in!
    • 30' Half an hour gone and still no breakthrough for United... but they've been on top so far, no doubting that.
    • 29' FLETCHER! Not a bad effort from the Scotsman! He pounces on a loose ball 20 yards out... Shovkovskiy gets behind it well to make the save.
    • 28' Simpson finds some space on the right wing... but his cross is poor and Diakhate is able to clear with ease!
    • 24' Carrick heads back into the mixer from Nani's deep corner... nothing comes of it though...
    • 23' Great change of pace from Ronaldo to get to the byline... corner to United!
    • 21' Lovely passing move instigated by Tevez and Rooney... Carrick's final ball through towards Tevez is just overhit though... United looking confident...
    • 19' That was a bit of frustration from Rooney... he appeared to be elbowed by Federov moments earlier.
    • 18' Rooney flies into a challenge on Milevsky out on the far side.... and that's a sure booking if there was one.
    • 17' Rooney takes down a long ball superbly before dragging a cross back.... NANI! Great block from Federov!
    • 16' Another penalty shout for United as Tevez goes down in the box... nothing doing for United...
    • 14' Diakhate deliberately impededes the run of Ronaldo... but amazingly the referee opts not to give a free kick...
    • 12' United defend a brief Dynamo attack well here... no way through for Correa...
    • 10' What a ball from Ronaldo... his back heel finds Tevez, but the Argentinian's cross doesn't find a United head and the chance goes begging.
    • 6' Ghione lunges in on Ronaldo... there'll be plenty more of that to come tonight...
    • 4' RONALDO! Oooh! Not far off from the in-form Portuguese! He directs a volley just wide of the post under pressure from Fedorov!
    • 3' Here come United... Carrick looks for Rooney... but Ferdorov keeps his eye on the ball to clear behind for the first corner of the match!
    • 1' Underway in Manchester!
