Sunderland's away day difficulties continued, as they went down to a 2-0 loss at Premier League leaders Manchester United.

Dimitar Berbatov scored both times, as United eased past Sunderland.

The Bulgarian headed home Wayne Rooney's cross early on and United dominated the match from then on.

Berbatov also hit the post with a drive and Anderson crashed a shot against the bar as United created chances at will.

After the break, Berbatov made it 2-0 with a deflected shot from just inside the box to wrap up a comfortable win.
