Lukaku & Martial equal Man Utd partnership record

Romelu Lukaku and Anthony Martial have equalled the record for the most prolific Manchester United partnership in Premier League history.

Martial set up his Belgian teammate for the opening goal in Sunday's 2-1 win over Chelsea. It was the sixth time the pair had combined to score this season.

They now join the likes of other famous Red Devils pairs, such as Eric Cantona and Ryan Giggs, and Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney.

With still plenty of football left to be played this season, Martial and Lukaku look set to pull themselves ahead of a few club legends.
