An inspired Wayne Rooney opened the scoring on 20 minutes, coolly stroking the ball home from 18 yards. Rooney then set up United's second, clipping in a cross for Louis Saha to volley sweetly into the bottom corner.

Cristiano Ronaldo curled in a free-kick on 45 minutes and Saha rounded things off with an 86th-minute penalty.
