Play by play

95'
Nasri's goals have lifted the Gunners and this has been one of the best matches this season. What an advert for the Premier League, what a game! See you next time!
95'
GAME OVER! Arsenal have got their season back on track. They managed to hold on for a big, big win after some relentless pressure from United.
95'
Fabregas finds Toure who doesn't take it into the corner. United charge forward, but that's it.
95'
Surely the whistle is just seconds away?
95'
Bendtner is found by a great ball from Nasri. He runs at the defence and slices his shot over.
94'
More passing from Arsenal and they've lost out. Good ball from Fabregas, but Vidic cuts out the run from Denilson.
94'
Well claimed by Fabianski. He came out to claim the high ball.
93'
Bendtner does really well, but loses out eventually. Fabregas was there, but failed to control it.
92'
Rafael and Ronaldo link and charge forward. United are building play and Arsenal are sitting, trying to break it up.
92'
Phew, no time to draw breath. Van der Sar gets United going again.
91'
Gallas climbs well and Fabregas gets away from Ferdinand. There's Arsenal players pouring forward but Denilson's shot is saved.
90'
6 mins of injury time. This is the most important six mins of football this season for the Gunners.
89'
There's some injury time to come. What a strike from the full-back. Can Arsenal hold on? Or will they crumble as they did against Tottenham?
88'
GOAL! The ball is knocked back to the edge of the box and Rafael smashes it into the far corner.
88'
Park's shot is blocked by Song, and Arsenal can't clear.
87'
Nasri looking to charge through, but Ferdinand is ther. Tevez finding some room and battles his way to a corner.
86'
Toure charges down the right. They should be going for the corner, but are still trying to play!
86'
Sagna does well, but cuts inside and has a shot. Not what Arsenal wanted from that, they should be looking to keep possession.
85'
Diaby coming off and Kolo Toure on.
84'
Rafael goes in really well on Denilson to stop the break. Great stuff from the little Brazilian.
84'
Kicks up off the wall, he didn't quite get enough on it and it's out for a corner. Well cleared by Diaby.
83'
Ronaldo gets a chance from the free-kick. It's 35 yards out, but the surface is still wet.
82'
Well broken up again by the Gunners, now they look dangerous on the counter attack. United have to push everyone forward.
81'
Bendtner gets away from Ferdinand and turns inside, strong side, right foot, but doesn't connect well and it's saved easily.
80'
Wonderful from Sagna, he got away but Bendtner's cross is cut out by Rafael. United break and Ronaldo's ball across the ball box is too high for Tevez.
