Man Utd huff and puff past Charlton to reach Carabao Cup semi-finals - 6 talking points

Manchester United booked their place in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup with a win over League One side Charlton on Tuesday night.

Erik ten Hag rang the changes for the cup match, handing opportunities to Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho and Anthony Elanga, and United came through unscathed to make it six straight wins and five clean sheets since the World Cup. But it was far from a vintage performance from the home side, who lacked fluency in the final third until Marcus Rashford's late brace.

Antony curled a wonderful shot into the far corner in the first half to make it 1-0. Garnacho sparkled early on, Diogo Dalot blazed over a clear opportunity, Fred hit the post with a free-kick and Elanga had a goal correctly ruled out for offside, but there wasn't much to shout about until late on.
