Manchester United kept their hopes of a top four finish alive with a comfortable win over Sunderland on Sunday.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic opened the scoring with a beautifully curled effort from just outside the box on the half hour mark.
United's task became easier when Sebastian Larsson was red carded for a lunge at Ander Herrera.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan added a second just after half time and Marcus Rashford scored for the first time since September to cap a miserable game for struggling Sunderland.
