Blackburn Rovers vs Manchester United

1. 90'

   A regulation victory for United, their will be much harder tests ahead if they are to retain their Premier League crown

2. 90'

   And finally that's it, the whistle goes.

3. 90'

   Roberts almost gets in for a consolation, good defending by Vidic once more

4. 90'

   Three pointless minutes to be added on

5. 89'

   Cross from Andrews is met by Samba, but he powers it well over. Good chance that, but Samba's had a shocker

6. 88'

   United seem able to carve Blackburn open at will. 2-0 is flattering to the home side

7. 87'

   OOOHHH! The sidefooted effort from Tevez on the edge of the box strikes the outside of the post and away. So close again

8. 86'

   Another top run by Ronaldo, he gets in a good position to cut it back for Tevez...

9. 85'

   Samba is late on Tevez and goes into the book

10. 84'

    Tevez tries to put Berbatov in through the centre - overhit and through to Brown

11. 83'

    United fans are understandably enjoying this now, a fine three points for the champions

12. 82'

    United break and it's three-on-three. Ronaldo looks desperate for a goal and tries to shoot, but it's blocked. Wasteful

13. 81'

    ...and again it's dragged wide by Ronaldo who's not had his shooting boots on today

14. 80'

    Tevez plays the trough ball for Ronaldo who bends his run...

15. 79'

    Brett Emerton has a volleyed effort, Vidic makes the block

16. 78'

    Final change for United as Rooney - no sign of that injury - is replaced with Park Ji-Sung

17. 77'

    Great strike from Anderson just outside the area, Brown has to claw it behind for a corner

18. 76'

    Players going down with a real splash on the sodden surface now

19. 75'

    United want a penalty for a handball by Nelsen, Rooney is insisting, but referee Bennett isn't interested

20. 74'

    ...NO! Berbatov tries to get round goalkeeper Brown but the stopper does brilliant to take the ball away from the striker with his feet

21. 74'

    Now Berbatov robs Samba who's having a nightmare few moments. He's through on goal and surely this time...

22. 73'

    ...he lifts it over the onrushing Brown but the shot lands on the roof of the net

23. 73'

    Rooney gets in behind Samba and it's a great chance to end any lingering doubt...

24. 73'

    Now a foul by Treacy on Ronaldo - Sir Alex is furious but there will be no card

25. 72'

    Emerton takes the free-kci in Van der Sar claws it away from under his crossbar
