Loser van Gaal fails to lose

Manchester United sealed a first win of the 2014/15 season yesterday as the Reds, inspired by new signing Angel Di Maria, romped to a 4-0 win over Queens Park Rangers at Old Trafford, and pulled it off without anybody on either side getting yellow-carded. Di Maria, playing his first match for the Reds in front of the home crowd, was in sizzling form throughout and he kicked off the scoring on 24 minutes with a curling free-kick. He played a part in United's second goal from Ander Herrera, before Wayne Rooney added a third before half-time. Di Maria then set up Juan Mata for a fourth after almost an hour. However, one win isn't going to be enough to reverse Man United's fortunes. They need to stay at the top of their game for the whole season to take back the title.
