Manchester United vs Reading score resul

A Brazilian mastercla s from Casemiro, Antony and substitute Fred sent Manchester United on their way to a convincing 3-1 win over Reading and a spot in the fifth round of the FA Cup.Two goals from Casemiro in the space of four second-half minutes put the Red Devils on their way before Fred sealed victory on a night when Antony played his best game in a United shirt.Reading had an even tougher mountain to climb after veteran striker Andy Carroll was sent off on 65 minutes, and a goal from substitute Amadou Mbengue while down 3-0 proved to be a mere consolation.United dominated po se sion throughout the opening exchanges, peppering Reading's goal with Bruno Fernandes, Antony and Wout Weghorst all having early efforts that went wide.Marcus Rashford forced a decent save from a free-kick as he went in search of his tenth goal in ten home games and shortly after that he thought he had achieved the impre sive feat on 36 minutes when heading home from close range, albeit for Weghorst to be ruled offside in the build-up following a VAR check.United continued to pre s for the opener but wasted several more chances and almost headed into the break a goal down as Reading's Junior Jamarco Jones Jersey Hoilett forced Man United 'keeper David de Gea into a smart save with his legs after robbing Tyrell Malacia of the ball in the box.But the home side upped the ante in the second half and a moment of brilliance from Antony saw the Brazilian pull off a neat no-look pa s into the box as Casemiro ran onto it and dinked the ball over the goalkeeper to finally open the scoring on 54 minutes.It didn't take long before the former Real Madrid man had his second. This time a delightful curled effort from 25 yards into the far post left Reading's Joe Lumley no chance. Fred soon joined the action off the bench and showed some Brazilian flair of his own as he cheekily flicked the ball between his legs at the near post from a corner to make it 3-0.It was a night to forget for veteran Reading striker Carroll who headed for an early bath on 65 minutes after picking up a second yellow for a late, clumsy tackle on Casemiro. Reading oddly responded by pulling a goal back through substitute Mbengue Freddie Swain Jersey heading home from a corner, but it was too little, too late.United's impre sive displays under Ten Hag continue to go from strength to strength, particularly at home with an 11th straight win at Old Trafford, and they'll be in the hat for Monday's fifth-round draw.MORE: Manchester United have now won their last 11 home matches in all competitions:3-1 Reading2-1 Man City3-0 Charlton3-1 Everton3-0 Bournemouth3-0 Nottingham Forest2-0 Burnley4-2 Aston Villa1-0 West Ham3-0 Sheriff2-0 Tottenham Hotspur7 - SEVEN clean sheets.

Four added minutes.84th min: Reading are getting the ball higher up the pitch, but United can now afford to be patient with their play and take the time with a two-goal cushion.
