90'

GOAL! 4-0, James finishes the tie off! Bailly finds him on the right and he drives infield, ignores two team-mates in the area and finishes calmly, squeezing it through Remiro's legs. Good finish.
Bailly gets the assist for a simple pass out to the wing.
88'
Robin Le Normand gets yellow.
Le Normand gets a late yellow card for taking James out on the counter. He'll be suspended for the return leg.
86'
Jon Bautista enters the game and replaces Mikel Oyarzabal.
Oyarzabal is replaced by Bautista. He wasn't anywhere near his best tonight.

83'

Minute
Description
81'
That deserved better. Greenwood picks out Fernandes with an absolutely perfect first-time pass on the turn. He knocks it on to James who drives into the box down the right channel, but can't beat Remiro.
80'
Barrenetxea enters the game and replaces A. Isak.
Portu enters the game and replaces A. Januzaj.
Portu is on for Januzaj, who hasn't had a great game against his former side.
Barrenetxea comes on for Isak. The striker threatened a couple of times in the first half but had to do most of his chance creation for himself.
76'
Will Shoretire or Diallo get a chance to impress off the bench tonight? It seems as good a chance as any, particularly for Diallo if United are looking to manage Greenwood's playing time.
74'
Illarramendi is off too, replaced by Guevara.
73'
Guevara enters the game and replaces Illarramendi.
Andoni Gorosabel enters the game and replaces Joseba Zaldúa.
Double change for Sociedad. First, Gorosabel comes on for Zaldua, who has injured his hamstring.
Greenwood skips past Illarramendi at the edge of the area and goes for the goal at the near post. It's going wide anyway but Remiro touches it behind for a corner.
72'
United have slowed the pace a little now. They're camped in the Sociedad half but not taking any chances on the counter.
70'
Maguire meets the corner with a strong header but the referee spots a foul from Greenwood as Remiro pushes it away.
69'
There's a problem for Sociedad here. Zaldua has gone to the turf holding his right hamstring. It doesn't look like he'll be carrying on, and United have a corner on the left.
68'
A. Martial enters the game and replaces M. Rashford.
Rashford's night is done. He might have scored more, but he got his goal in the end and created the opener for Fernandes. Martial comes on.
GOOA-no! United think they have a fourth as Greenwood races clear down the left and squares for James to side-foot home, but Greenwood was just offside in the buildup. The linesman's flag was straight up, and VAR says he got it right.
66'
It would be easy to write this off as 'just the Europa League', but this is looking like an impressive result for United. Sociedad haven't really turned up tonight but they're not a bad team at all.
64'
M. Rashford has scored a goal for Manchester United! Assist by Fred.
Fred gets the assist, a perfectly judged through ball from him.
3-0! Rashford! United might be out of sight! It's a lightning-fast counter from Solskjaer's side. Henderson claims a high cross and lobs it out to Fred, who slips Rashford through on goal. Zubeldia is tracking him all the way but he can't keep up, and Rashford slips it past Remiro and into the bottom-right corner.
62'
Sociedad need a goal tonight. Two away goals puts United at a huge advantage going into the second leg, especially given their home leg is actually at home.
60'
N. Matić enters the game and replaces S. McTominay.
United make the first change of the night. McTominay is replaced by Matic in midfield.
57'
Bruno Fernandes has scored a goal for Manchester United! Assist by D. James.
James gets the assist but it's yet another moment of brilliance from Fernandes.
GOOOOAAL! Fernandes has his second after a VAR review! Rashford slips a pass through to Fernandes at the edge of the area and he dummies it cleverly before taking it off James' toe and bending it into the bottom-right corner. The linesman's flag goes straight up, but the goal is given as Fernandes had come from behind James to collect the ball.
55'
Telles still looks a little uncomfortable but he's going to try and run it off. Rashford tees up Bailly from 30 yards, and he blazes his shot just as far high and wide as you would expect.
54'
Telles is down holding his lower back. Shaw is warming up on the touchline.
53'
Monreal fires in a low pass from the left to Silva on the penalty spot, but it's just behind the former Man City man and he can't wrap his boot back around it to turn it goalwards.
52'
Telles whips in the free-kick but Le Normand gets his head to it and Januzaj completes the clearance.
51'
Fernandes hoiks a high pass from left to right, looking to give James something to chase. Chase it he does, but Monreal bundles him over from behind and United get a free-kick, about 25 yards out on the right.
49'
Oyarzabal puts in a dangerous-looking cross for Isak and Maguire does well to hook it away at the edge of the six-yard box. Moments later, Merino tries to pick out Silva in space in the area but it's over his head.
47'
A loose ball bounces up nicely for Le Normand in midfield. It's absolutely miles out but he hits it like a rocket on the half-volley. Luckily for Henderson, it's straight at him and a simple save.
45' +1
HALF-TIME: REAL SOCIEDAD 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED
45'
Every United fan in the world holds their breath for a moment as Fernandes hobbles away from an innocuous-looking challenge. On second viewing, he's just had his foot trodden on, and there's no lasting damage.
We're back underway for the second half.
43'
Oyarzabal is fouled by Bailly as he looks to launch a counter-attack following a United corner. Merino and Silva are the men who end up getting a ticking-off for complaining to the referee about it, but there's no card.
41'
Sociedad are growing into the game now, looking more confident on the ball and showing more purpose with their passing.
40'
Zaldua crosses from the right, looking for Oyarzabal at the edge of the area, but he's crowded out by United's centre-backs.
39'
Bailly makes a great goalline clearance after Monreal heads the ball out of Henderson's gloves, but the referee blows up for a foul on the keeper anyway.
38'
Oyarzabal slips Isak in at the right side of the area. The forward drills in a low cross and Greenwood finds himself in unfamiliar territory, desperately clearing away with Monreal ready to pounce. He just does enough, shanking his clearance out of play for a goal kick.
36'
Sociedad are struggling to stamp their authority on the game when they have the ball, which is unusual for a team with so much creative talent. Oyarzabal and Silva have only completed 20 passes between them in the first 35 minutes.
34'
Oyarzabal holds onto the ball really well as he cuts in from the right and carries it along the edge of the area. Nobody can get a foot in before he slips the ball over to Januzaj in space on the left, but he spanks his cross straight out of play for a goal kick.
31'
Telles swings a deep free-kick on the left over towards Maguire at the far side of the area, but Illarramendi gets ahead of him to nod it behind. Telles delivers the corner too, but it's headed away by Merino.
30'
The goal was an unfortunate one for Sociedad to concede, but they are good value for their lead. Rashford in particular has had some big chances.
28'
And of course, it's not just a goal - it's an away goal. Sociedad are as far away from home as United are, but still.
27'
Bruno Fernandes has scored a goal for Manchester United!
GOAL! United lead 1-0, of course it's Fernandes! Rashford picks up the ball on the left and scoops a ball over the top for Fernandes. Remiro, who has been excellent, comes out to claim the ball but he's wiped out by his own team-mate as Le Normand tries to hoof it clear. Both end up on the floor, and Fernandes is able to side-foot home into an empty net.
26'
Remiro comes way out of his area to intercept a ball in behind intended for Rashford. The keeper takes a big touch but nobody closes him down, and he's able to look up and pick out a cross-field pass to Oyarzabal from only a couple of yards off the halfway line.
24'
Isak turns nicely away from Bailly in midfield and charges towards goal. He does well to hold off two defenders as he dribbles but eventually Maguire does put a good challenge in.
Fernandes crosses from the right corner of the penalty area. It looks to be an easy clearance for Zaldua at the far post but he misses the ball, and he's lucky Rashford doesn't react to the chance in time. It bounces off him and Sociedad clear.
23'
Fred and Oyarzabal both go for a high ball and both kick each other in the foot, but the free-kick goes Sociedad's way. Januzaj takes it from deep on the left but gets his delivery all wrong, bending it out for a throw-in on the far side.
21'
This has been an excellent first 20 minutes of football. There have been five big chances - United have had the best of them but Sociedad look threatening when they get into the final third.
18'
Le Normand lumps a ball forward for Monreal to chase. Bailly goes for it but Henderson lets out one of the most impressive bellows of 'MINE!' you'll hear all season, and the defender lets it bounce through.
15'
Isak wins a corner for Sociedad on the left. It isn't immediately cleared but Maguire eventually puts his foot through it before an attacker can seize on the stationary ball.
13'
Rashford carries the ball brilliantly down the left channel, skimming one man in midfield and finding Greenwood out on the left flank. He looks to cross for Fernandes as he arrives into the penalty area but Monreal makes a firm defensive header.
12'
Sociedad almost have a three-on-one against Maguire but Bailly just gets across to intercept Isak's pass on the halfway line.
8'
A. Wan-Bissaka gets yellow.
Wan-Bissaka gets the first yellow card of the night for a bad tackle from behind on Monreal. Absolutely nowhere near the ball.
6'
Monreal tackles James well in the United right-back position. Fernandes hurries to the ball to try and take the throw-in but could hardly look more guilty as he does so, referee Sandro Scharer immediately pulling it back and giving the throw to Sociedad.
5'
This is shaping up to be a very entertaining match. Both teams look much more up to speed on the ball than they are off it.
2'
Greenwood seems to be the man starting through the middle for United. Rashford has started out on the left, with James on the right.
1'
We're off!
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of this Europa League Round of 32 first-leg fixture! It’s Real Sociedad against Manchester United at the Juventus Stadium in Turin, after the game was moved because of coronavirus travel restrictions.
United have rediscovered their form since crashing out of the Champions League group stage; they’re second in the Premier League right now, though they only managed a draw with West Brom last time out. Sociedad are fifth in La Liga but their form has been up and down in recent weeks.
MANCHESTER UNITED (4-2-3-1): Dean Henderson; Alex Telles, Harry Maguire, Eric Bailly, Aaron Wan-Bissaka; Fred, Scott McTominay; Daniel James, Bruno Fernandes, Mason Greenwood; Marcus Rashford.
SUBS: David de Gea, Anthony Martial, Juan Mata, Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof, Nemanja Matic, Brandon Williams, Amad Diallo, Shola Shoretire, Axel Tuanzebe, Lee Grant.
The teams are on their way out onto the pitch, and we're almost ready for kick-off!
REAL SOCIEDAD (4-3-3): Alex Remiro; Nacho Monreal, Igor Zubeldia, Robin Le Normand, Joseba Zaldua; Mikel Merino, Asier Illarramendi, David Silva; Mikel Oyarzabal, Alexander Isak, Adnan Januzaj.
SUBS: Portu, Jon Guridi, Ander Guevara, Jon Bautista, Ander Barrenetxea, Unai Marrero, Martin Zubimendi, Martin Merquelanz, Andoni Gorosabel, Modibo Sagnan, Aihen Munoz.
In a way, it's Sociedad boss Imanol who might be more optimistic going into the second half. His side have been nowhere near their best, so there's plenty of scope for them to improve, while United failed to put the game out of sight when they had the chances to do so.
That's it from me here tonight. Until the next time, goodbye!
The return leg is a week today, at Old Trafford on February 25. United follow that game with Premier League matches away to Chelsea and Man City, so the Sociedad game is a good chance to rest and rotate with the tie surely done and dusted.
