CSKA Moscow 1 Manchester United 4

UEFA Champions League | VEB Arena | Att: TBC | Scorers: Kuchaev 90; Lukaku 4, 27, Martial 18 (pen), Mkhitaryan 57

MATCH SUMMARY

Manchester United seized control of UEFA Champions League Group A in merciless style on Wednesday night, putting fellow matchday-one victors CSKA Moscow to the sword with Romelu Lukaku's double, Anthony Martial's penalty and a Henrikh Mkhitaryan strike. Konstantin Kuchaev's injury-time reply was scant consolation for the hosts.

Three of United's goals came in a superb first period for Jose Mourinho’s men and it was Lukaku who began the rout with a comfortable far-post header from Anthony Martial’s left-wing cross.
