Manchester United vs Chelsea

1. 92'

   FULL-TIME: A better second half from both sides, but it's Chelsea who emerge with the points. Ferguson will be mystified by his team's lack of drive.

2. 91'

   Rooney fires the set-piece in to the area, but it's the visitors who emerge with the ball. Lampard breaks but Carroll is quick out of his box to deny him.

3. 90'

   United win a free-kick when Huth fouls when challenging for a header. Carvalho heads away for a corner.

4. 89'

   Chelsea aren't playing with any forwards at the moment.

5. 88'

   SUB: Cole off, McGrath on. A debut for the 17-year-old midfielder. He looks a little like Kanu. His first contribution is to fly out and slide in on Silvestre; good challenge.

6. 87'

   Cole is operating up-front on his own at the moment, though it's United who are having most of the ball. They're not really putting Chelsea under any pressure, though.

7. 86'

   Rooney does well down the left, beating Geremi and lofting a good ball across the six-yard box. Saha attempts an ambitious scissor-kick, but Huth sticks his head where it hurts and clears.

8. 85'

   SUB: Gudjohnsen off, Morais on. The new man is a young Portuguese midfielder, who has made just one appearance previously for Chelsea.

9. 84'

   United win another free-kick in a good position. This time they elect to clip the ball in to the area, but Ronaldo's cheeky flick is cleared by Gallas.

10. 83'

    Cole's goal was very similar to Van Nistelrooy's at the start of the game, turning home from close range after finding a yard of space in the area. The difference was, however, that VN was on-side; JC wasn't.

11. 82'

    Cole and Ronaldo clash for a moment on the half-way line, though both are keen to extend the olive branch of peace and get on with the game.

12. 81'

    GOAL! Lampard cuts in from the left wing, crosses low and Cole stabs home from six yards out. Replays show he was off-side.

13. 80'

    Ronaldo cuts in to the area but slices his right-foot shot well wide of the goal when in a decent position. He holds his head in frustration.

14. 79'

    Scholes finds Ronaldo with a lofted ball over the head of Jarosik, but the youngster's cross is cleared by Huth.

15. 78'

    Chelsea are being very patient and professional as they try to close out the game. They are moving the ball around well and picking their passes with care.

16. 77'

    Saha collapses in a a heap, holding his head, after challenging for a header with Huth. He needs some treatment, which gives the players a chance to chat amiably for a moment.

17. 76'

    Chelsea's last league double over Manchester United came in 1994, I'm reliably informed. Don't blame me if that stat is wrong. I'm merely the messenger.

18. 75'

    A rare piece of mis-control from Makalele almost lets Saha in, but he recovers well.

19. 74'

    Chelsea will be delighted to close this match out; it will send a signal to United that they're determined to take this season's form in to next.

20. 73'

    Oooh! Keane takes the free-kick quickly, prodding the ball in to the path of Scholes, who cracks a shot just over the bar.

21. 72'

    Gallas is furious as the referee rules that he fouled Ronaldo. He is booked for the dissent, and the set-piece is moved forward 10 yards.

22. 71'

    SUB: Saha on, Fletcher off; Jarosik on, Johnson off. An attacking substitution from the home side, who will play more 4-4-2 now. Chelsea's is a more defensive move.

23. 70'

    Chelsea deal with the corner well, though United come at them again. Silvestre can't beat Geremi, however and Chelsea can clear.

24. 69'

    Keane wins his side a corner when he sneaks around the back of the Chelsea defence, and his attempted cut-back is put behind by Makalele.

25. 68'

    Another good passing move from Chelsea ends when Gallas can't quite get on the end of Lampard's precise ball in to the United penalty area. Chelsea are much the better side at the moment.
