Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney teamed up for the first time since the World Cup to help Manchester United thrash hapless Fulham, reports BBC. Louis Saha headed United in front on seven minutes and his cross then forced Ian Pearce to divert into his own net. Rooney tapped in before crossing for Ronaldo to make it four in 19 minutes. Fulham pulled one back when Rio Ferdinand deflected Heidar Helguson's effort into his own net but Rooney wrapped up the victory after the break.
