Man Utd 4 v 1 Derby

Manchester United overcame Derby's resilience to move within a point of Premier League leaders Arsenal. Ryan Giggs put United ahead with his 100th league goal, slotting home after Ronaldo's shot was only parried.

Carlos Tevez made it 2-0 from a Ronaldo free-kick before Wes Brown teed up the Argentine striker for a third.

Wayne Rooney and Giggs hit the woodwork before Steve Howard bundled home a late reply for Derby but Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty sealed a fine United victory. (BBC Sport)
