Nathaniel Mendez-Laing’s brace helped Cardiff City end their season on a high with a 2-0 win at Manchester United.

The Bluebirds extended their lead nine minutes into the second half, with Josh Murphy squaring for Mendez-Laing to tap in his second.

Marcus Rashford had a header well saved by Neil Etheridge, but the home side were unable to make a breakthrough.

A fifth match without a win means United finish sixth on 66 points, while Cardiff’s fourth away win gives them 34 points in 18th.
