BURY 0

United made a merciless start to their defence of the Manchester Senior Cup, obliterating Bury with a five-star show at Moss Lane.

Sam Hewson opened the scoring, a brace from Kiko Macheda and a Cameron Stewart strike made the game safe, before Scott Moffatt rounded off the result with a close-range strike to put almost 18 injury-plagued months to bed.

United goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler was a virtual spectator all evening, so comprehensive was the Reds' victory, and Hewson set the ball rolling with just five minutes on the clock.

Ritchie de Laet embarked on the first of many winding runs forward before teeing up Oliver Norwood, who beautifully disguised his pass through for Hewson, and the midfielder had enough time for two touches before stabbing home his effort.

Whereas Monday's league win over Bolton slowed after an early United goal, the Reds continued to press with intent throughout the first half, and their lead was soon doubled - albeit after the needless concession of a penalty, which Macheda stroked home.

The Italian had a big role in the third goal of the day too, plugging away down the left flank before crossing for Stewart, who took a touch and thumped home a left-footed strike.

The pair switched roles early in the second half. Magnus Eikrem found Stewart out on the right, and the winger's pinpoint cross was emphatically nodded into the bottom corner by Macheda.

United continued to press forfurther goals, with Macheda twice close to completing his treble, before unlikely goalscorer Moffatt popped up to volley home after Joe Dudgeon had headed another Stewart cross back across the goal.

The defender had endured a torrid time with injuries, and his broad grin laid bare how much it meant to be back in action, and back amongst the goals.

Substitute Matt James also came close to his first competitive goal of the season, only to be thwarted by visiting goalkeeper Cameron Belford, who also produced a fine flying save to keep out de Laet's late screamer.

United: Zieler; Gray (Moffatt, 46), Cathcart (Chester, 46), De Laet, Dudgeon; Stewart, C Evans (James, 64), Hewson, Eikrem, Norwood; Macheda.
