Play by play
- 94'
<b>FULL TIME</b> Nani's free kick was poor and that is that. A good game and Bolton giving as good as they got. United leaky at the back and rescued by Owen's goal. Fergie looks distinctly unhappy, as per usual, but he can't argue Bolton didn't deserve it.
- 93'
Evra is fouled on the left and a final chance for United to pinch it.
- 93'

- 92'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Matt Taylor comes on for Petrov, who has had a good game.
- 91'
Perhaps a final chance for Elmander as he can't connect with a shot after Davies' flick on.
- 90'
Three minutes added as O'Shea gets in a mess.
- 89'
Davies rises well to nod the corner but Park clears in the melee.
- 88'
Am excellent clearance from Park as a ball came into United's box, now Bolton win a corner.
- 87'
Petrov fires wide from a free kick 30 yards out.
- 86'
Nani's cross is poor and Jaaskelainen claims. There could still be a winner at either end here.
- 85'
Another chance for Elmander as he runs past Vidic but his effort was always spinning away from goal. A decent chance.
- 84'
Kevin Davies is penalised for backing into Evans. Six of one, half a dozen of the other really, but the ref was never going to give a pen.
- 83'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> Vidic charges in on Elmander and will get a deserved booking.
- 82'
Owen's cross finds Scholes and he tries to flick the ball to Evra but Knight is there. Now United win a corner.
- 81'
Scholes gets his first shooting opportunity but fires over the bar from 20 yards. A good hit but always rising.
- 80'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> Mark Davies gets a yellow for a tackle from behind on Park.
- 78'
Elmander tries to find Holden in the box but though he takes a swipe, O'Shea had it covered.
- 77'
Great ball from scholes wide to Nani who cuts inside Lee and fires a shot wide of ther far post.
- 76'
Awful touch from Owen who can't find Scholes then gives away a free kick. The game is wide open now.
- 75'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/yellow_card.jpg" height="15"> Phil Dowd gets his yellow out for the first time and no surprise that Scholes gets it for a late lunge on Davies.
- 74'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/goal.gif"> <b>GOAL</b> Owen flicks a header into the net! He's still got it!
- 73'
What a chance to seal the game! Elmander works a brilliant chance for himself as he rounds Vidic but then he blazes over from 16 yards with only VDS to beat. Great work until the finish.
- 72'
The last time Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd lost on the same weekend was March 1995.
- 71'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Fletcher comes off and Owen comes on. Rooney has ice on his left ankle while Giggs has ice on his hamstring. They are dropping like flies.
- 70'
That goal has injected a bit of life into Bolton's fans. They have to hold firm now because they know the onslaught is coming.
