Manchester United 3-0 Sunderland: Mata seals win as Van Gaal's men go top




Manchester United moved to the top of the Premier League table thanks to goals from Memphis Depay, Wayne Rooney and Juan Mata as they beat Sunderland 3-0 at Old Trafford.

Louis van Gaal’s side capitalised on Manchester City’s defeat at Tottenham earlier in the day to move a point about their city rivals.

Memphis opened the scoring deep into first-half stoppage time, tapping home Juan Mata’s pass after a superb cross-field pass by Daley Blind.

Rooney then added a second shortly after the break, the ball hitting his knee and flying past Costel Pantilimon after some good work from Anthony Martial before Mata grabbed a third in the 90th minute.
