Mid-term conclusion:
There’s no need for stoppage time, so it’s time for the break. The match between Southampton FC and Manchester United remains goalless after the first 45 minutes. Both teams had good phases, but rarely got in front of the opposing goal. Still, there were opportunities for leadership on both sides. Manchester United missed their best chance of the game in the 31st minute when Bruno Fernandes, Anthony Elanga and Christian Eriksen were all saved in succession by Gavin Bazunu and Armel Bella-Kotchap. So the encounter at the beginning of the second round remains completely open.
