Manchester United scored their biggest away win in the Champions League by crushing Leverkusen 5-0 in Group A with goals from Antonio Valencia, an own goal from Emir Spahic, Jonny Evans, Chris Smalling and Nani. Although he did not score, Wayne Rooney was outstanding while Ryan Giggs, two days before his 40th birthday, was also hugely impressive. Giggs told Sky Sports: It was a bonus to score five away from home. The front four were really quick and I am still really enjoying it. Leverkusen slipped from second to third due to Shakhtars 4-0 victory over bottom club Real Sociedad. Shakhtar, who have eight points, go to United in their last game on December 10 while Leverkusen, who have seven points, visit Sociedad, bottom and out of Europe altogether with one. Leverkusen can still qualify if they beat Sociedad and Shakhtar fail to defeat United at Old Trafford.
