Manchester United blasted past a poor CSKA Moscow side and look well placed to banish the memories of their last tilt at the trophy
When Manchester United were last a Champions League club, it was their miserable group-stage exit which ensured the writing was on the wall for manager Louis van Gaal.
Their 2017-18 campaign could barely be more different to date, with Wednesday’s Anthony Martial-inspired 4-1 victory away to CSKA Moscow putting them in a dominant position in Group A.
Lukaku scored twice as a dominant Manchester United won 4-1 at CSKA Moscow in the Champions League group stage on Wednesday.
Lukaku claimed his ninth and 10th goals of the season for United with a header and a close-range finish either side of Anthony Martial's penalty as United went into the break 3-0 up.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan made it 4-0 after the break with a rebounded effort, and if it wasn't for home goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev making a string of saves, it could have ended much worst for CSKA, who grabbed a late consolation through 19-year-old substitute Konstantin Kuchaev.
