Martial
marked his return to the starting XI for United with a counter-attack goal on
21 minutes. United broke from a Burnley free-kick and Martial scored after a
one-two with Ander Herrera.
Rooney,
captain for the day, celebrated his first start since 4 March by doubling the
lead five minutes before half-time, reacting first to squeeze home the ball
after Martial’s shot had been saved.
United stay
fifth but the win moved them to within a point of Manchester City with the two
playing eachother at the Etihad Stadium on Thursday.
The defeat
means Burnley, who did not have a shot on target, are 15th on 36 points, five
above the relegation zone.
