Manchester United, in the trough of the wave since the start of the season, just achieved a resounding achievement. The English club has put together a handicap of two goals conceded against Olympiakos in Greece to finally win 3-0 and qualify for the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

Very few observers believed in regard to the shape of the Red Devils this season. But the players knew what they had to do, as so aptly reminded Patrice Evra during a press conference. A single man took charge of settling things. Robin Van Persie put in a hat-trick with two goals before halftime to maintain hope for his team.

Manchester United therefore dominated Olympiakos to give air to manager David Moyes, widely criticized and already announced on the departure in case of defeat on Wednesday.
