Play by play

And that was that. A fitting end to the greatest managerial career ever.
Sir Alex already looking to the future and telling everybody to stand by their new manager. Also, pays tribute to Paul Scholes who retires today. Then talks about wishing Darren Fletcher a speedy recovery.
Sir Alex finally looking emotional as his achievements are announced. A wry smile as he picks up the mic. Congratulates the fans, the players and the club for being superb to him.
Lots of claps and hugs and embraces on the Old Traffford pitch. Scholes as always, understated. Ferguson is about to address the stadium.
Swansea had secured European football and Premier League status a long time ago. Man Utd were crowned champions weeks ago but this game was all about Sir Alex's last game and his team duly delivered the win his career deserved to end on.
90'
There we have it. Manchester United delver late to secure a 2-1 win in Sir Alex Ferguson's last game at Old Trafford. The whistle has gone and that party we've been talking about will officially start.
90'
Miscontrol by Britton gifts the ball to Kagawa who plays it to Anderson who rolls it in to Van PErsie. The striker tried to shoot first time on the half turn but didn't catch it right and Tremmel saved with ease.
90'
Three minutes of added time and Swansea are deep in their own half.
90'
Anderson and Van Persie move the ball up the pitch but Anderson then decides to bring the ball backwards and United keep possession. Evra now with it on the left.
89'
Valencia slips by Davies and then drives his cross against him. Swansea win the throw though. Anderson then finds himself with space on the edge of the area but he scoops his drive over the bar.
88'
United looking to kill this game now. The party is on with that late goal.
87'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/goal.gif"> <b>GOAL</b> Rio Ferdinand scores his first Old Trafford goal in five years. The corner comes across and Vidic misses the first header but the ball bounces kindly to Rio who finishes like a striker and lashes the ball home.
87'
<img src="http://soccernet-assets.espn.go.com/design05/gp10/i/subs.gif"> Kemy Agustien is coming on for Pablo Hernandez as United prepare to take a corner won by Van Persie.
86'
You wouldn't know that Swansea were the away team. Hernandez walks through the defence but a last ditch tackle from Valencia thwarts the attack.
85'
Carrick tries to be clever on the edge of the area but loses the ball to Dyer. HE keeps Swansea's attack going but Valencia manages to clear.
84'
Evra doesn't do enough to stop Routledge. They run it down the line but Vidic gets across to clear.
83'
Poor free kick from Giggs but the Ferdinand cross that followed the clearance perhaps was worse. Swansea avert that danger.
82'
Giggs loses the ball but Swansea's resulting cross is straight to De Gea. Van PErsie collects a huge switch but Chico brings the Dutchman down.
81'
Anderson dribbles through the middle of the pitch but his pass to Giggs is sloppy and intercepted by Rangel. Britton now breaking with Ben Davies on the left.
80'
United are dominating the ball again but are struggling in the final third.
79'
Giggs handballs to get the ball back from De Guzman. Free kick to Swansea in the Utd half.
78'
Free kick cleared for a corner. Van Persie swings it in and Vidic attacks it but his contact was poor and it goes wide.
77'
Evra does really well to stay on his feet as he glides by De Guzman. Van Persie takes over but is tripped by Chico. Giggs stands over the free kick wide left.
76'
Swansea keeping the ball away from Utd well here.
75'
