CSKA Moscow 1 - 4 Manchester United Video Highlight All Goals - Romelu Lukaku's double alongside Anthony Martial and Henrikh Mkhitaryan goals see visitors cruise to win. It appeared to be a diplomatic gesture when the home side's coach observed in his programme notes that 'Manchester United have been in search of their new self since Alex Ferguson's retirement, and now they seem to be almost there.' By the end of the night there was a genuine sense that he might just be right. The difficult five seasons since Ferguson walked away have not been entirely devoid of success on foreign soil in the Champions League. The 5-0 win at Bayer Leverkusen in November 2013 was a footnote to the David Moyes era. But there was a balance of attacking force and defensive durability about this performance which suggested a corner being turned. Though Romelu Lukaku and Anthony Martial eviscerated the Russian defence, Henrikh Mkhitaryan eclipsed all others.
There were two digs from Mourinho on Thursday night for the fixture schedulers who have United playing at 3pm on Saturday against Crystal Palace, having touched down in Manchester at 4am on Thursday morning. 'A difficult one against a fresh team while we are still here,' he said.
