Manchester United reach Carling Cup final

Manchester United (3) 4 Derby County (0) 2; Agg 4-3

Leading at the interval through goals from Nani, John O’Shea and Carlos Tevez, United were troubled by the introduction of Giles Barnes, an inspired move by Nigel Clough, as he promptly scored twice, a penalty and a free-kick.

Fortunately for the Reds, Cristiano Ronaldo converted a spot-kick inbetween and they were safe.
