Manchester United are being held to a goalless draw by Swansea City after 45 minutes of their Premier League match at Old Trafford.

Nemanja Vidic came close to scoring for the home side in the opening stages, but after reacting quickest to a loose ball in the box, he fired over the bar.

They came even closer minutes later when Adnan Januzaj curled a free kick from just outside the area against the crossbar.

Patrice Evra then tried his luck from just inside the box, but Gerhard Tremmel got down quickly to save his low strike.

The home team were dominating and Darren Fletcher fired over the bar after good work from Danny Welbeck.

Welbeck should have given United the lead 10 minutes before the break, but after receiving Antonio Valencia's pull-back, he fired wide of the far post.
