Manchester United spoilt the goal-scoring debut of Ivorian Wilfried Bony for Swansea City by cruising to a 4-1 win on the opening weekend of the English Premier League season.

The striker, a close-season signing from Dutch club Vitesse, struck on 82 minutes in south Wales, but it was too little too late as the 'Red Devils' had built a three-goal lead.

Hertha Berlin and Tunisia striker Sami Allagui has bagged three goals just two weeks into the German season, including one that flew in off the chest of a Nuremberg defender in a 2-2 draw.
