Play by play

  1. 90'

    This result leaves United almost certain of a passage into the knock-out stages - though they will still have to work on their defence

  2. 90'

    The United fans again sing out 'Rooney, Rooney' in recognition of his achievements on a remarkable debut

  3. 90'

    It was a highly entertaining game, but the star of the show was without doubt Wayne Rooney

  4. 90'

    And there goes the final whistle

  5. 90'

    Djemba-Djemba brings down Van Hooijdonk 25 yards out. Free-kick in a central area. It is Van Hooijdonk - but the shot dips over the crossbar

  6. 90'

    Two minutes to be added on

  7. 89'

    It's very quiet at Old Trafford tonight - expect when Rooney gets on the ball

  8. 88'

    Umit tries another shot, this time from 25 yards out, only to find the upper reaches of the stand

  9. 87'

    Bellion comes forward and tries to shrug off the challenge of Luciano - who does well to win the ball

  10. 86'

    The Fenerbahce side has bags of character, still full of energy and attacking impetus despite the scoreline

  11. 85'

    Umit finds space at the far post and side-foots the volley first time. Carroll is beaten but the shot comes back off the post

  12. 84'

    For once Alex's corner deliver is poor and straight into the clutches of Carroll

  13. 83'

    A double change for United, Gabriel Heinze and Ruud Van Nistelrooy are replaced by Phil Neville and Liam Miller

  14. 82'

    Bellion remained calm to latch on to Rooney's fine flicked header to send him through, he closed in on goal and slotted in from the angle. And that's six

  15. 81'

    GOAL!!!

  16. 81'

    Rooney's deft flick finds Bellion and he's through...

  17. 80'

    Fenerbahce still come forward looking for a third goal, this side certainly does not lack spirit

  18. 79'

    Great ball from Fletcher, great skill from Van Nistelrooy and a fine power finish to give Rustu no chance. United lead 5-2, game over

  19. 78'

    GOAL!!!

  20. 78'

    Fletcher recieves it on the right flank, looks up and spots Van Nistelrooy in the area. He picks the Dutchman out who controls it on his chest, and drags it past the challenge of Umit...

  21. 78'

    United break and Van Nistelrooy finds himself through with Rustu bursting out of his area. Van Nistelrooy gets there first - Rustu does well to win the ball when out of his ground

  22. 77'

    ...Alex strikes it straight at Carroll, who beats it away, and United eventually clear their lines

  23. 76'

    It comes back into the area from the right, Van Hooijdonk lets it run and Alex is there...

  24. 75'

    Umit beats Fletcher on the left flank and picks out Marcio Nobre, he cannot direct his header goalwards

  25. 74'

    Van Nistelrooy turns well but just overhits his attempted flick to send Rooney in on Rustu's goal
