BRADFORD 0 MAN UTD 4

MANCHESTER UNITED`S seemingly unstoppable charge towards another Premiership title continued as they won 4-0 at Bradford on Saturday.

Dwight Yorke`s first half brace, which brought his tally to 7 in 4 games and 20 for the season, set the Red Devils into half-time two in front.

The Trinidad and Tobago international headed home David Beckham`s corner to open the scoring after 37 minutes and then netted again three minutes later when he lobbed Matt Clarke.

Paul Scholes put the result beyond doubt with a brilliant third in the 71st minute. The England international hit an unstoppable volley past Clarke in The Bantams goal, direct from a Beckham corner.

From provider, Beckham turned to goalscorer to round off the scoring 11 minutes from time, when he wrongfooted Clarke with a strike from the edge of the box.

United`s win extends their lead at the top of the league to seven points - at least until Leeds travel to Leicester on Sunday.
