Hello and welcome to Craven Cottage where Fulham hosts Manchester United - City is looking to regather their top of the table status off United.
Join us for video live updates, highlights as they happen, streaming commentary and all the action of the English Premiere League 2011.
73 mins: Demsey spins and turns his way into the United area but he'd need even quicker feet to beet the cover that pounces. Chances coming for Fulham but chances going as well.
69 mins: Intricate play on the edge of the area with Rooney and Welbeck putting on a master class. Welbeck's shot just wide. Video up.
63 mins: United just starting to get warmed up after oranges... taken some time. Promising build up involving Giggs, Rooney and the likes falls apart when Wellbeck is a mile offside.
55 mins: Free header for Fulham's Dempsey and for the first time Lindegaard is really tested. Then that's backed up by another strike on goal. Video up.
53 mins: Young down getting attention but he's okay it seems. Fulham continues to surge forward and the United of the first half seems to be left in the dressing rooms.
50 mins: Fulham has won their first corner of the match! Bit sloppy from United but Evra cleans up at the back. But United breaks and Young and Valencia dazzle down the right - dead ball line delivery lacks as Valencia just needed to find a man free in the middle.
19 mins: Jones is having to go off after that head banging. Rooney has half a chance at one end while Ruiz makes a nuisance at the other. Jones' last play in the match - the tackle on Ruiz - was magic. Video up.
5 mins: GOAL. Nani breaks down the left and delivers a great ball to Alves who tucks it away. Video up. That was all too easy for United.
2 mins: Break in play already as Dempsey climbs high with elbows all over the place and Phil Jones cops on in the mush. He doesn't look like he's in a good way. Video up.
1 min: United with first use of the football... we'll get some highlights up when they happen as Nani fires a dangerous ball into the box that's been well dealt with.
Teams are just making their way out onto the park... who will get the English Premier League's 20,000th goal!? Will it happen in this one? They'd have to hit the back of the net a few times....
Well this one is a wee little gem for us football fans to sink out teeth into... Man U are on a touch of a roll and looking better as each week passes following their exodus from the Champs League. Fulham to feel more backlash?
