United could easily have had 7 here. But they're well on their way to qualification with this resounding win.
- 88'
That's 7-0 to Arsenal now. Ouch!
- 86'
Nani dances his way around the Kiev defence and is halted by Shovkovskiy who throws himself at the tricky Portuguese's feet.
- 85'
Chances at either end in the closing stages make for a frantic finish. United could have 7, Kiev could have 5.
- 83'
Kuszczak is forced into making an important save from Rincon on the turn. He was stretching and couldn't get enough power on it to steer it beyond the keeper.
- 82'
Ronaldo also tries his luck from similar range and the keeper this time blocks the danger with his legs.
- 81'
Rooney gets another strike on goal. Low and on the turn but Shovkovskiy gets down quickly to deny him.
- 80'
Danny Simpson is also given a rare runout with a tired Ryan Giggs making way.
- 79'
And picking the ball out of the net is the Dutchman's last act of the game. He's carrying a knock and United take no chances with Kuszczak coming on between the sticks.
- 78'
United's lead is reduced again thanks to a stunning low shot from BANGOURA on the edge of the box. Van der Sar had no chance.
- 78'
DYNAMO KIEV 2-4 MANCHESTER UNITED
- 75'
Kiev have lost the spark that threatened to bring them back into the game. It only lasted for around 15 minutes at the start of the half and they've lost all confidence now.
- 73'
Some disturbance in the crowd as some smoke fireworks are let off. No danger it seems as United boss matters on the field.
- 72'
The visitors can afford to take their foot off the gas somewhat now. Kiev are a beaten side and United will stay top of the group.
- 71'
Change for United and Tevez makes way for Nani.
- 70'
United may not have deserved the penalty which didn't look purposeful at all, but they certainly merit the 4-1 scoreline. 20 minutes to go and they're cruising.
- 67'
It was a harsh decision to award the penalty. After confusion with the linesman over whether the handball from Gavrancic was in or out of the box, RONALDO dispatches the spot-kick.

PENALTY: MANCHESTER UNITED
- 65'
Ferdinand makes a wonderful recovery to get O'Shea out of jail after a poor backwards header. Bangoura chased the loose ball but Ferdinand smothers him out superbly.
- 64'
Another corner for Kiev and another header from Rincon. He beat his marker once again and only narrowly missed the target. Good spell this for Kiev.
- 62'
Back come Kiev and Milevsky is hauled down by Vidic in the box in what looked to be a nailed on penalty. The referee's having none of it though and Man United are awarded a free-kick. Bizarre decision.
- 61'
Ronaldo gives the visitors some respite as he charges upfield on a United counter, Kiev hold firm and make the block from Giggs' shot.
