Manchester United vs Arsenal

1. 90'

   FULL-TIME: United are good value for their ninth consecutive Premiership victory; the gap at the top is still seven points with just five matches to play.

2. 89'

   Ronaldo gets the chance to run at Senderos; he does a couple of quite unnecessary step-overs before the big Swiss defender decides he's had enough and robs him of the ball.

3. 88'

   Ferdinand breaks from the back; he feeds the ball in to the feet of Rooney, but the United star can't take the ball in his stride.

4. 87'

   With the game seemingly out of Arsenal's reach, the tempo and tension has gone out of the play.

5. 86'

   Saha flicks on a long clearance from Van der Sar, but Senderos comes across to clear as Rooney looked to pounce on the loose ball.

6. 85'

   Senderos almost finds Ljungberg with a good low pass, but Silvestre gets just enough on the interception to take the ball away from the Arsenal winger.

7. 83'

   UNITED SUB: Evra comes on to replace Park; Park has played his part in this United win, grabbing the crucial second goal. Evra comes on to give the home side a more defensive feel.

8. 82'

   Vidic has been immense at the back for United; after a shakey start, he and Ferdinand have been excellent.

9. 81'

   Adebayor shows good pace to beat Vidic, but he can't pick out a team-mate with a cross.

10. 80'

    Ronaldo is unbelieveably lazy at times; he just stands and watches as Pires walks towards him with the ball at his feet; the thought of making a tackle seems to be the furthest thing from his mind.

11. 79'

    United are just eleven minutes away from a massive win; it just keeps them in with a shout of catching Chelsea.

12. 78'

    GOAL! Rooney gets to the by-line after rounding Senderos; he doesn't panic as he faces Lehmann, instead he picks out Park with a low pass to the back post and the South Korean international slides home.

13. 77'

    GREAT DEFENDING! Ferdinand makes a strong, well-timed challenge on Ljungberg as he broke in to the penalty area.

14. 76'

    Silvestre is booked for a challenge on Ljungberg. It's a harsh decision; the Arsenal winger just seemed to get his legs tangled.

15. 75'

    Senderos is lucky not to give away a free-kick as he blocks off Rooney as the United man tries to close down Lehmann.

16. 74'

    ARSENAL SUB: Ljugberg comes on for Hleb. Arsenal's final change.

17. 74'

    CHANCE! The corner is only half-cleared; it falls to Pires, but he drags his shot wide and Eboue can't direct it goalwards at the far post. Poor effort from Pires.

18. 74'

    Adebayor's touch takes him past Vidic and in to the area, but United have enough players back to snuff out the danger. Arsenal corner...

19. 73'

    ...But he curls a right-footed shot a few yards wide of the near post. No trouble for Van der Sar.

20. 72'

    Henry stands over the free-kick, 30 yards out...

21. 72'

    Pires is pushed by O'Shea as he runs at the heart of the United defence. A booking for the Irish utility man.

22. 71'

    Ferdinand is down at the moment, receiving some treatment. After a spell on the touchline, he is back on the pitch and seems to be moving freely enough.

23. 70'

    ARSENAL SUBS: Fabregas and Van Persie are replaced by Henry and Diaby. Double change from Wenger as he urges his side on in search of a goal.

24. 70'

    This is phenomenal stuff from both sides; great skill and technique, played at a furious rate.

25. 69'

    HEADER! Giggs' free-kick is punched in to the air by Lehmann; Ferdinand climbs highest among a group of players to head goalwards, but Senderos heads clear.
