Emirates FA Cup: Win brings United relief

Daley Blind of Manchester United celebrates as he scores their second goal during the Emirates FA Cup fourth round match between Derby County and Manchester United.

The pressure on Manchester United manager, Louis van Gaal, was eased with a 3-1 win at Derby County. Wayne Rooney put the visitors ahead in their Emirates FA Cup 4th round tie with a curled effort after a quarter of an hour. The Championship side levelled matters just before the break, with George Thorne finishing off a well-worked move. However, Daley Blind converted Jesse Lingard's cross to restore United's advantage just past the hour mark, before Juan Mata then sealed the win late on.
