Injury-hit Manchester United beat relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest 2-0 on Sunday to rise to the third spot on the Premier League table.

The win strengthened the Red Devils' push for a top-four Premier League finish.

United took the lead in the 32nd minute when Antony poked home after Navas parried a powerful shot from Anthony Martial.

The Red Devils continued to dominate in the second half as well, with Fernandes and Eriksen pulling the strings.

And their dominance was finally rewarded in the 76th minute when Dalot burst into the box to meet a pass by Antony to score his first Premier League goal.

The win leaves United three points clear of fourth-placed Newcastle after 30 games, and six clear of Tottenham, in fifth.
