Manchester United Thump Chelsea to Secure Champions League Spot

Red Devils Crush Blues at Old Trafford

Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford Score Goals in Dominant Win

Manchester United produced a stunning performance to thrash Chelsea 3-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday, securing their place in next season's Champions League.

Bruno Fernandes opened the scoring in the first half with a superb strike from outside the box, before Marcus Rashford doubled the lead just after the break with a clinical finish.

Cristiano Ronaldo made it 3-0 late on with a close-range header, ensuring United finished the season in third place in the Premier League.

The win was a fitting end to a memorable campaign for United, who have struggled for consistency under manager Erik ten Hag.

Ten Hag praised his players for their performance, saying: "We played a great game today. We were dominant from start to finish and deserved to win."

Chelsea, on the other hand, were left to rue a disappointing end to the season, which saw them finish eighth in the league.

Manager Thomas Tuchel said: "We were second best today. Manchester United were simply too good for us."

The result means Manchester United will enter the Champions League group stage next season, while Chelsea will have to settle for the Europa League.

Sporting CP Manager Rúben Amorim Linked with Manchester United Job

Sporting CP manager Rúben Amorim has emerged as a potential target for Manchester United following their impressive season in the Primeira Liga.

Amorim, 37, led Sporting to their first league title in 19 years, as well as the Taça da Liga.

He is known for his attacking style of play and his ability to develop young players, which has reportedly caught the attention of United.

Manchester United are currently on the lookout for a new manager after sacking Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in November.

Erik ten Hag is the current frontrunner for the job, but Amorim is thought to be a backup option.
