There's the final whistle! United have done it the hard way, but they start their title defence with a win.
90+3'
Foster is up for a West Brom free-kick!! The ball loops to De Gea, who declines the option of going for the empty net, and plays it short instead!
90+2'

Cox is rightly booked for diving as he catapults himself past Phil Jones.
90+2'
Cox tries to get a shot away... again it is charged down.
90+1'
Four minutes of stoppage time to be played... Fergie looks unimpressed.
90'
Mulumbu hits a long-range shot that comes back off a defender at the edge of the United box.
89'
Brunt hits a low shot from the edge of the box. It's straight at De Gea, who just about manages to cling on.
88'
Tchoyi brings the ball down superbly at the edge of the box, but he takes an age over the shot and gets crowded out in the end.

West Brom: Simon Cox on for Shane Long.

Another yellow card as Scharner goes through the back of Rooney. Clear booking.

West Brom: Gonzalo Jara comes on for Steven Reid. Apparently we have to call him Gonzalo Jara Reyes this season.
84'
Tchoyi flicks the ball up and volleys... high over the bar.
83'
Shane Long has had a great game, and he forces Jones into a last-ditch challenge. A real handful, the Irishman.
82'
That will go down as an own goal, presumably against Reid. But great play by Young, digging United out of a deep, deep hole.

GOAL!! ASHLEY YOUNG!! Gives United the lead back from an outrageous angle! He dribbles inside from the left and fires it in - and the ball actually goes in via Tamas AND Reid.
80'

West Brom look the likelier goalscorers here - and Anderson is booked, apparently for chatting back to the ref.
79'
Now De Gea is down injured after catching an arm in the face from Long. He'll be OK. But will his confidence?
78'
De Gea comes for Brunt's free-kick and gets taken out as he rises - but it wasn't very assertive goalkeeping and Mike Jones says no foul.
77'
Cleverley goes piling into Long and that's a free-kick. He says he pulled out of the challenge, and the replay seems to back him up.
