Manchester United vs Bayer Leverkusen

The game lacked a competitive edge, with both teams already qualified, but Ferguson will be happy with the 2-0 result.

Another fine European performance from Veron, once he had found his feet, and another goal for Van Nistelrooy.........eventually.

United top Group F and will be seeded in the draw fro the second phase. Leverkusen go through in second.

The final whistle goes at Old Trafford and United have beaten Bayer Leverkusen 2-0.

There is more happening at Feyenoord. Newcastle have taken a 3-2 lead and, as things stand, will go through to the next phase.

Rio Ferdinand limped off moments later and with all three subs already on the pitch United are down to ten men.

United ran down the clock a bit more with another substitution - Chadwick on for Giggs.

Sorry about the hold up, a few technical difficulties, you've not missed too much though.

Bayer make another change and Preuss comes on to replace Ballitsch.

.....Veron stoops low and Butt makes a reaction save to stop the Argentine's powerful header.

....Ruud spreads the play out wide to Scholes, who chips the ball to the back post where Veron waits....

Beckham goes off to be replaced by Solskjaer. Bayer also make a change and Bierofka is replaced by Dogan.

United make a change and G.Neville replaces Blanc - O'shea is back on his feet.

O'Shea looks to have taken a whack and Ricardo hoofs the ball into touch so the defender can get some treatment.

Zivkovic crosses from the right. Brdaric leaps and heads wide under pressure from O'Shea.

....Scholes looks to get in a header but eventually pulls out as a defender's high boot clears the ball.

Beckham floats the ball into the area from a corner. O'Shea gets a flick-on and Scholes is waiting......

Feyenoord have hit an equalizer in Rotterdam. As things stand Newcastle will go out - they need to win.

Van Nistelrooy hits the back of the net again but this time the offside flag does go up.

A hint of offside but United's fans are not complaining as they cheer United's second goal.

...He spins and slams the ball into the back of the net from 10-yards. GOAL!!!!!
