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.
