Manchester United moved to within one win of the Premier League title with a comfortable victory against West Ham.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored from 12 yards after three minutes and bundled home his 40th goal of the season from close range in the 24th minute.
Carlos Tevez added a brilliant third from 25 yards before Nani was sent off for head-butting Lucas Neill.
Dean Ashton pulled one back with an overhead kick, but Michael Carrick drove in a fourth after 58 minutes.
The victory means United will retain the title with victory at Wigan next Sunday, thanks to their vastly-superior goal difference compared to rivals Chelsea.
United were helped by a desperately listless West Ham side that never gave the slightest hint they would repeat last season's win at Old Trafford that preserved their Premier League status. Credit to : news.bbc.co.uk
