Manchester United continued their charge towards a place in the Top 4, as they ran out 2-0 winners over Burnley at Turf Moor on Sunday.

Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney were the heroes for Manchester United on Sunday, as they beat Burnley 2-0 at Turf Moor, thereby closing the gap on fourth-placed city rivals Manchester City to one point.

Martial opened the scoring for Manchester United midway through the first half as he set off on an electric counter attack before releasing Herrera on the edge of the box. The Spaniard set Martial up with an inch perfect pass and he made no error in dinking the ball over Tom Heaton.

Wayne Rooney then doubled the advantage in the 39th minute, as he scored his first goal since January in scrambled fashion. Manchester United retained the majority of the control in the remainder of the match to seal off the win over Sean Dyche’s men.
