Jesse Lingard scored his fourth goal in as many games and substitute Romelu Lukaku added a stoppage time effort as Manchester United reached the FA Cup fourth round with a 2-0 home win over Championship side Derby County on Friday.

Lingard, who scored a pair of fine goals in a 2-2 Premier League draw with Burnley followed by another in a 2-0 win at Everton, produced another exquisite finish as he unleashed a first-time shot from 18 metres in the 83rd minute.

Lingard hit the post several minutes earlier as Derby looked set to earn a reply after United had missed a string of chances, with Marcus Rashford also hitting the woodwork while visiting keeper Scott Carson produced a barrage of good saves.

Lukaku, who returned from a head injury and came on as a halftime substitute for Henrikh Mkhitaryan, broke away and powered his shot past Carson at the death as Derby threw men forward in search of an equaliser.

The omens are not good for Derby because history shows that Manchester United breeze past lower-league opposition in this competition. That said, Derby can look at the example set by Bristol City who recently beat Jose Mourinho's side 2-1 in the League Cup..

On that last post, who would buy a half-and-half Liverpool and Everton scarf? This rivalry divides families, keep it off scarfs. For goodness sake people.

3: There's a ripple of applause as Vigril Van Dijk takes his first touch as a Liverpool player. The home side are the team on top here and Everton look happy to sit back and defend, just like they did here last month.
