Wayne Rooney scored twice as Manchester United moved two points clear at
the top of the Premier League. Rooney, who saw a long-range strike saved
in the opening 45 minutes, slotted home from 12 yards after just 30
seconds of the second half. Mark Schwarzer denied Darren Fletcher but
Rooney sealed the points with a low strike across goal after superb
approach work from Dimitar Berbatov. A teasing cross from Ji-Sung Park
was then headed home by Berbatov.

AC Milan
0 Agg: 7-2
AC Milan's hopes of reaching the last eight were already extinguished by
the time Beckham entered to a standing ovation with United leading 3-0 -
and Rooney was the man responsible as he repeated his two-goal
demolition of the Italians at the San Siro on home territory. Rooney
headed United in front from Gary Neville's cross early on and extended
United's 3-2 advantage from the first leg even further seconds after
half-time after good work by Nani. Ji-Sung Park drilled in the third on
the hour as United exerted complete control. Darren Fletcher added the
fourth with a diving header from Rafael's cross three minutes from time
to put added gloss on a hugely satisfying evening.

Paul Scholes grabbed the winner to earn Manchester United a laboured win
over strugglers Wolves and send his side back to the top of the Premier
League. The 35-year-old ran onto Nani's pass in the box, turned past
Christophe Berra, and slid home the winner on 73 minutes. Scholes's
100th Premier League goal spared the blushes of a United side clearly
missing the cutting edge of the injured Wayne Rooney.

Substitute Wayne Rooney scored the winner as Manchester United beat
Aston Villa in the Carling Cup final. Villa took the lead through James
Milner's early penalty after Nemanja Vidic fouled Gabriel Agbonlahor.
Michael Owen sidefooted an equaliser when Dimitar Berbatov capitalised
on a Richard Dunne mistake. Ji-Sung Park hit the post but Rooney, who
was later denied by the woodwork, proved the hero when he headed Antonio
Valencia's cross into the top corner.

Rooney took his goal tally to 27 for the season as Manchester United saw
off West Ham to move to within a point of Premier League leaders
Chelsea. The in-form frontman opened the scoring with a firm header from
Antonio Valencia's excellent volleyed cross. And another Valencia cross
was headed home by Rooney for the hosts' second, before substitute
Michael Owen clipped a late third from Paul Scholes's pass. West Ham
battled bravely, but fell away in the face of Rooney's brilliance.
