LONDON (AP) -Manchester United stayed in control of the English Premier League by beating Sunderland 3-1 on Saturday, keeping Manchester City at arm's length following the champions' impressive win at Newcastle by the same scoreline.
Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney - United's in-form attacking partnership - were both on target at Old Trafford to secure the team's fifth straight victory to remain six points clear.
City recovered from its agonizing derby loss to United last weekend by winning at St. James' Park, courtesy of goals by Sergio Aguero, Javi Garcia and Yaya Toure.
Liverpool's resurgence was ended with a 3-1 home loss to Aston Villa, Everton drew 1-1 at Stoke, and Queens Park Rangers climbed off the foot of the table by beating Fulham 2-1 for its first victory this season.
