LONDON (AFP) - Manchester United's imperious march towards five trophies in a season continued here Saturday as Carlos Tevez scored twice in a 4-0 win over Fulham that saw his side into the FA Cup semi-finals.
Tevez's first-half double at Craven Cottage put Sir Alex Ferguson's team in charge before further goals from Wayne Rooney and Park Ji-Sung wrapped up a commanding victory.
With the FIFA Club World Cup and the League Cup already in the Old Trafford trophy room and the Premier League title theirs to lose, this win left United two victories away from winning the FA Cup for the twelfth time.
And before they resume league action against Liverpool next weekend, they face Inter Milan in Manchester with a place in the Champions League quarter-finals up for grabs.
It's little wonder Ferguson gives the impression his hardest job right now is keeping expectations down to a manageable level.
