UCL: CSKA Moscow 1-4 Manchester United


Two goals from striker Romelu Lukaku

Two goals from striker Romelu Lukaku against CSKA Moscow helped Manchester United move three points clear in Group A in the Champions League.


United boss Jose Mourinho made five changes to his starting XI after the win over Southampton, but his team still produced the goods in Russia.

They opened the scoring after just four minutes when Anthony Martial picked out Lukaku who headed home.

Martial then doubled United's advantage 15 minutes later as he converted from the penalty spot, after Henrikh Mkhitaryan was brought down by Georgi Schennikov.

The Red Devils were three-up inside the first 30 minutes as Martial turned provider again for Lukaku to volley home after a missed clearance from the CSKA defence.

Mkhitaryan then scored his only goal of the night just 12 minutes into the second half, with Martial on hand to get another assist. The French winger's blocked shot was saved by Igor Akinfeev but the former Borussia Dortmund man was on hand to tap home at the back post.

United goalkeeper David de Gea did all he could to keep a clean sheet but Konstantin Kuchaev was able to score from a tight angle with just seconds remaining. 

Wednesday's win saw United move onto six points, three clear of FC Basel and CSKA Moscow.
