Updated: Wednesday, 19 Mar 2014 22:11 | Comments Robin van Persie scores the opening goal from a penalty kick The Olympiakos goalkeeper Roberto watches on as Robin van Persie completes his hat-trick with a fine free kick Video Audio A stunning Robin van Persie hat-trick was enough to put Manchester United into the quarter-finals of the Champions League and relieve the pressure on their beleaguered manager David Moyes. Van Persie, who left the pitch on a stretcher late on, converted a first-half penalty and scored on the brink of half-time before he struck the final goal of the 3-0 win with a free-kick just after the restart. The win meant that United saw off the challenge of Olympiakos 3-2 on aggregate. The Theatre of Dreams
Liverpool crush United to go second
Updated: Sunday, 16 Mar 2014 21:26 | Comments Steven Gerrard is mobbed following one of his two successful penalties Audio Manchester United's dire season sank to a new low as they gifted Liverpool their first victory at Old Trafford in five years, going down 3-0. Steven Gerrard scored twice from the penalty spot and Luis Suarez scored his 25th goal of the season to complete an easy win which underlined the huge gulf in quality between the two sides.

Updated: Tuesday, 11 Mar 2014 23:16 | Comments Olivier Giroud (C) vies for the ball with Bayern Munich's Mario Mandzukic, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Dante Arsenal bowed out of the Champions League despite a spirited 1-1 draw against holders Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena. It was always going to be a tall order for Arsene Wenger's men after losing the first leg of their last-16 tie 2-0 in London last month. And so it proved, despite a resilient effort from the Barclays Premier League side, who equalised through Lukas Podolski having fallen behind to Bastian Schweinsteiger's close-range effort early in the second half. There was late drama when Lukasz Fabianski saved a stoppage-time penalty from Thomas Muller for what looked a soft decision for

Moyes secure at United despite rumours
Updated: Wednesday, 26 Feb 2014 13:38 | Comments David Moyes presided over one of the worst displays during his time as Manchester United manager in Athens David Moyes remains the manager of Manchester United despite speculation to the contrary. Rumours of an imminent announcement on the New York Stock Exchange spread on social media on Wednesday, with the suggestion it would state that Moyes was to leave the club following Tuesday night's 2-0 defeat to Olympiacos in the Champions League. The odds on Moyes being the next Barclays Premier League manager to leave his post dropped from 14/1 to 8/11 in less than 24 hours, but Press Association Sport reports that the Scot is still very much in charge.
