Derby 0-3 Utd: Shaw & Ighalo lead Utd ease past Rooney's side & reach FA Cup QFs

Wayne Rooney could not prevent former club Manchester United progressing to the FA Cup quarter-finals as Derby County were easily beaten.

Odion Ighalo scored twice as Manchester United eased into the FA Cup quarter-finals with a 3-0 win over Derby County at Pride Park.

The Red Devils' January loan signing took his tally to three goals in two starts for the club after Luke Shaw had put the visitors in front on Thursday.

United's record goalscorer and former captain Wayne Rooney started against his old club but, aside from some impressing passing from deep, he could not help Derby spring a shock against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.
