Bolton 0 United 5
United made the short trip to the Reebok stadium on Saturday and enjoyed another goalscoring romp against a poor but overly physical Bolton side. Tormentor's in chief where the United front line pair of Hernandez and Rooney, the latter helping himself to his second successive hatrick.
United got off to a flyer in the 5th minute when superb movement by Hernandez saw him get in ahead of his marker and finish smartly from a right wing cross by Nani to make it 1-0. United soon doubled the advantage on 20mins when another right wing cross by the outstanding Jones was helped into the net by the lurking Rooney.
Things got even better for the Reds on 25mins when after a marauding run from United new boy Jones
resulted in a third for United and a second for the in form Rooney. Second half turned into a stroll for this exciting United team and it was no suprise when they added a fourth on 58 mins, a deflected Carrick shot fell to the ever alert Hernandez and the "little pea" made no mistake to complete his brace.
Rooney duly completed another hat-trick on 68 for the fifth. A raking cross-field pass by Giggs found Nani, who rolled it across the area for Rooney to fire into the bottom right hand corner. Job done!
Another great day for the Reds,more goals and some exceptional football played. Downside was the foot injury to young Tom Cleverly. Next up are Benfica in Lisbon.
United team, 1 De Gea, 4 Jones, 5 ferdinand, 6 Evans(Smalling 61), 3 Evra, 17 Nani, 23 Cleverly(Carrick 24) 8 Anderson, 18 Young(Giggs 60) 14 Hernandez, 10 Rooney.
