Lingard shows neat close control on the floor near the corner flag under pressure from Ince but the free-kick goes the other way. United should have had a free-kick there.

In the build-up to the game, Jose Mourinho believes he is a victim of his own success following criticism about United's style of play at Anfield.
“I think it’s my fault. Because people are used to my teams getting good results and winning titles.
“Other people have more time than I have. Other people have different standards than I have and that’s not a problem for me at all.
“We are going to lose matches, that’s obvious, and I can imagine we are going to have even more criticism than we have now. But, honestly, no problem.”
“I would like to know the last time United won nine points from three matches in the Champions League. We are doing OK.”

Despite the storm of criticism over Jose Mourinho's tactics in the bore draw against Liverpool last weekend, United are two points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City. Huddersfield meanwhile are 12th on nine points.
