Cardiff City 1-5 Manchester United

It's another for Manchester United! Jesse Lingard gets his second of the game and United's fifth. Pogba linked up with Jesse Lingard who's first touch was spot on enabling him to round the goalkeeper and place the ball into an empty net.

It's the first time United have scored five since the Fergie days.

Lingard skipped past Bamba into the box and as the Cardiff man tries to  recover, he tripped up Lingard and conceded the penalty which was tucked away nicely by the 26 year old.

Another chance for Marcus Rashford. Again, Pogba is at the heart of the move. His no look pass played Rashford through, but Etheridge was first to the ball. The Red Devils are continuously knocking the ball around well on the right hand side.
