Manchester United's James Wilson celebrates after scoring his second goal 


While the 18-year-old Wilson introduced himself to Old Trafford, captain Nemanja Vidic made his last home appearance, and there was also a late cameo from United great Ryan Giggs that may have been a farewell.


Vidic will join Inter Milan on a free transfer after United's last game at Southampton on Sunday, while Giggs, currently the interim manager, will shortly be out of contract.


For the last home game of his interim role, Giggs gave a nod to the club's traditions by picking both Wilson and 20-year-old Tom Lawrence. Wilson scored once in each half, with Robin van Persie adding a late third.
