On a high after toppling Halfman, the Cocks drew first blood here when Rashford buried a penalty. Arkadiusz Milik, however, was having none of it. The Pole fired home either side of the half-time break in a dominant performance, with Salah following up to establish a strangehold. Bielsa’s men have been better than their results suggested all season and they certainly looked a class above their opponents here as they secured a third consecutive victory. Ferguson’s side remain firmly in the battle to avoid last place.
