    That's good to read. I have only radio commentary to go by.

    Watching on a live stream, would not say we've been on top, except for a good spell of possession towards the end of the half, but we're pressuring very well and the only real chance they've had was the goal, so have to say we're good value for the draw at half-time.

    Have to say van Persie looks sharp and Fonte and Hooiveld are going to have their work cut out keeping him quiet in the second half, and Valencia looks very dangerous against Fox, but as highlighted by the goal, Lambert seems to be looking to get headers against Rafael, so that could yet be profitable for us.

    Evra and Ferdinand don't look in particularly great form and Kagawa looks a bit lightweight. Schneiderlin seems to have him in his pocket, and Lallana is playing very well also.

    Hopefully no more slips in the second half (change your boots Nathaniel!) and we've got a chance. Would have to say United are favourites though.

    Great game to watch so far!

    Watching the game on German Sky channel in Munich, the German commentry is really complimentary about the Saints, say we really deserve to go in level. Can see MU have so much quality but we are playing great...COYR

    SCHNEIDERLIN SCORES!!

    Incredible scenes. Kagawa and van Persie have both been close for United though.

    Not a statement I ever thought to hear this time last year!

    Why do we always take the lead too early.
