MU outclass Chelsea

AFP, Manchester
Manchester United's grip on the FTemier League trophy tightened significantly on Sunday as Sir Alex Ferguson's side put Chelsea to the sword in
front ofajubilantOldTYafford.
Nemanja Vidic's header on the stroke of half-time was followed by second-half goals for Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov as the champions ran out 3-0 winners in what had been billed as one of the season's pivotal encounters.
It was a performance which suggested that Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez may come to deeply regret his claim that United had been unsettled by the resilience of his side's challenge, particularly when it is set against the disjointed display that Benitez's men produced in
Saturday's goalless draw at Stoke.
In terms of territory and possession, Chelsea's best spell was the opening halfhour, a period in which referee Howard Webb brandished four yellow cards yet was surprisingly lacking in intensity.
It was United however who generated the first real chance of the match courtesy of the positive running of Patrice Evra. Collecting the ball deep in his own half, the French left back surged forward before finding Rooney on the edge of the box.
The England forward's flick found Berbatov and the cutest of sidesteps left Ricardo Carvalho sprawling but, with only Petr Cech to beat, the Bulgarian scuffed his shot and the Chelsea goalkeeper was able to make a comfortable save.
With Didier Drogba cutting a lonely figure up front, the best Chelsea had mustered by that stage were a couple of freekicks on the edge of United's area, neither of
which troubled Edwin van der Sar.
Ashley Cole's domination of Cristiano Ronaldo in their personal battle helped to ensure United were equally uninspired until the approach of half-time finally prompted them into the phase of sustained pressure that was to yield their openinggoal.
It began with Park Ji-Sung forcing John Terry into last-ditch block. The ensuing corner resulted in United appealing furiously for a penalty as Darren Fletcher's mishit shot appeared to strike Terry's outstretched arm just inside the box.
There followed another corner, to which United applied what appeared to be a cleverly conceived training ground ploy with Rooney tapping the ball off the corner before walking away as if he had decided to leave it for someone else.
Chelsea's defence bought the bluff
