Lazio have completed the signing of Pepe Reina after Milan reportedly agreed to the cancellation of his contract.

A move to Lazio – who will be his third club in Italy – had been mooted for several weeks and it was finally confirmed on Thursday.

A goal glut and a morale-boosting victory was just what Ole Gunnar Solskjaer s men needed after suffering back-to-back Premier League defeats, and the United boss watched a fluent performance from his charges despite a cut-up pitch at Prenton Park.

Maguire opened the floodgates with a long-range strike into the top corner and goals from Dalot and Lingard soon followed to put the visitors 3-0 up inside 16 minutes.

Phil Jones headed United s fourth and Anthony Martial s deflected shot made it 5-0 before Mason Greenwood scored a penalty in the second half to wra…

Bayern Munich spurned a host of chances as Leon Bailey s double earned 10-man Bayer Leverkusen a 2-1 win and inflicted a first defeat on Hansi Flick.

The champions had won each of their four matches without conceding since Flick was named interim boss following Niko Kovac s sacking, but they came unstuck in Saturday s Bundesliga clash at the Allianz Arena.

Thomas Muller scored his first goal in 21 league matches to cancel out Bailey s early opener, only for the Leverkusen winger to restore his side s advantage 115 seconds later.

Despite Jonathan Tah being dismissed nine minutes from time, a mixture of poor finishing and impressive goalkeeping from Lukas Hradecky left Bayern – who rattled the woodwork late on through Leon Goretzka and an unusually wasteful Rober…

Danilo put Juve ahead five minutes into the second half with a powerful long-range strike, yet Sassuolo equalised with a fine finish from Gregoire Defrel.

Sassuolo looked on course to take a point but late goals from Ramsey and Ronaldo secured the victory for Andrea Pirlo s side.
