Football: Solskjaer unimpressed as United ease past Reading in Cup


MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester United produced their least impressive performance under interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as the Norwegian offered rare starts to some out-of-favour big names in Saturday's FA Cup third round win over second-tier Reading. Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku, handed his first start under Solskjaer, took his chance with United's second goal just before halftime after Juan Mata's penalty put the hosts in front. United's resurgence under Solskjaer has hoisted them to within six points of fourth-placed Chelsea in the Premier League. Solskjaer also offered United fans a first glimpse of Dutch teenage winger Tahith Chong as a second-half substitute. "He did two or three good things, he got the crowd going, he is exciting," Solskjaer said.
