Charlton Athletic vs Manchester United

1. 90'

   It's a rout at The Valley. Goals from Fletcher, Saha and Solskjaer make it two wins from two and condemn the new Charlton regime to their second defeat of the new season.

2. 90'

   FULL TIME: CHARLTON 0-3 MAN UTD

3. 90'

   Solskjaer has got his goal and don't the United fans love it. He's been out for three years and is back on the scoresheet once more. Louis Saha's driven in cross found the unmarked Norwegian at the back post and he drills it back past Carson. Job done for United.

4. 88'

   CHARLTON 0-3 MAN UTD Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

5. 88'

   United are playing keep-ball now and Charlton just want the referee to blow the final whistle.

6. 86'

   Pure unselfishness from Carrick allows Solskjaer the chance to complete the rout, but Carson does well to get across and block his point-blank effort. Carrick really should have buried the chance himself though after a flowing break.

7. 84'

   Ronaldo wants to silence the crowd, but he won't achieve it with pot-shots from outside the box. This one flies high and wide.

8. 82'

   Charlton make a switch also. Dennis Rommedahl comes on to try and salvage something for the hosts.

9. 81'

   Ole Gunnar Solskjaer comes on to join the party. Louis Saha has done his bit tonight and is given an early rest.

10. 79'

    Brilliance from Saha! He chests the ball down beautifully, swilvels and fires a low stinging drive into the corner of the net. He can't quite believe how much room he was given, but he won't mind. It's all over now, surely.

11. 79'

    GOAL: CHARLTON 0-2 MAN UTD Louis Saha

12. 78'

    Giggs is capable from scoring from range so why not have a go? He takes advantage of a poor clearance but it sails over the bar.

13. 76'

    Michael Carrick throws off his tracksuit and comes on for his competitive debut for Manchester United. Park makes way for the £16m signing from Spurs.

14. 73'

    The Bent's combine well for the first time and Darren manages to get a shot off. Unfortunately for him it falls on his weaker left foot and he can't keep his effort down. Something for Charlton to build on perhaps?

15. 72'

    It's all hands to the pumps inside the Charlton box.

16. 70'

    It's teaming it down with rain but that doesn't peturb Iain Dowie from standing pitchside and barking out his orders.

17. 68'

    Saha just mis-reads Ronaldo's through-ball. They're cutting the Charlton defence to pieces at the moment, but the home faithful are still in good voice and are giving a rousing display in the stands.

18. 65'

    The Bent-Bent partnership resumes up front for Charlton as Marcus comes on for Hasselbaink to partner his namesake Darren.

19. 64'

    Giggs' corner brings a header from Saha that calls goal-line defender Ambrose into action. He clears for another corner that comes to nothing.

20. 62'

    If Charlton are to score it will no doubt come from a slice of luck. And they almost get it when O'Shea nearly heads into his own net.

21. 60'

    Darren Bent is isolated up front and Charlton need to try something other than hoofing hopeful balls in the air to him. It's bread and butter stuff for Brown and Ferdinand.

22. 57'

    Park almost doubles the lead with a brilliant acrobatic lunge at the back post. His outstretched leg diverts the ball onto the post and is hacked to safety. The Addicks are holding on by the skin of their teeth.

23. 56'

    Charlton are feeding on scraps at the moment and are camped in their own box.

24. 54'

    United look capable of putting this game to bed and have stepped up the pace since the break. Fletcher, Saha and Ronaldo combine well before the Portuguese midfielder has a shot blocked.

25. 52'

    United are firmly in control now and Fergie must have had a strong word at the interval. Gaps are being created in midfield and the United attackers are growing in confidence.
