Manchester United leapfrogged Liverpool back in to second place after a routine 2-0 victory over Swansea City at Old Trafford this afternoon.
United got off to the perfect start as Romelu Lukaku scored his 100th Premier League goal with a neat left-footed finish to make it 1-0 to the hosts in the 5th minute.
The Red Devils doubled their advantage 15 minutes later as Alexis Sanchez cooly slotted home from the edge of the area to make it 2-0 after being teed-up by Jesse Lingard.
United continued to dominate proceedings but they couldn’t find a third goal with Juan Mata missing the best chance early in the second half with an acrobatic volley.
The victory sees United climb back up in to second position in the table after Liverpool had briefly moved ahead following their win over Crystal Palace earlier today.
