Swansea City vs Manchester United

1. So United stay in touch at the top, and Swansea still look capable of achieving Premier League survival. Little learned about either side, in reality. A boring game and one that changes little in the league's landscape.

2. They were ultimately let-down by a brief lapse of concentration and poor defending which created Hernandez's goal. The truth, however, is that United probably wouldn't have sat back so soon had they not scored such an early goal and so a different outcome wouldn't have been that likely.

3. Rodgers can still be pleased with Swansea, though. Despite an obvious disadvantage in terms of playing personnel, they kept the ball down and played their passing game.

5. A poor game for the neutral, but an important win for United to keep in touch with Manchester City at the top in the table. Ferguson happy to bide his time - probably for the traditional new year title push - and continue to stabilise following a brief loss of form.

7. 90'

   Nani just wide! A surprise chance is created before he cuts inside and curls an effort just beyond the post. Decent effort.

8. 90'

   Fletcher, Valencia and Jones combining to keep the ball and run down any remaining time...

9. 90'

   Good performance today from the ex-Blackburn man.

10. 90'

    Before an excellent tackle from Jones.

11. 90'

    Sinclair trying to spearhead a final attack..

12. 90'

    Foul on Fabio...

13. 90'

    That Jones effort probably being the most exciting event in an otherwise dour fixture.

14. 90'

    3 minutes of stoppage time to be played.

15. 90'

    Impressive stamina from Jones! Exchanging with Valencia before getting just inside the Swansea box and firing against the post.

16. 90'

    Jones hits the post! That would have been game over!

17. 90'

    Closing stages of the game, now.

18. 89'

    United creating chances even when their intention is to retain the ball and little else.

19. 88'

    Rooney, with a deft chip following a rebound, sends the ball just over.

20. 87'

    Nice play from Rooney, exchanging the ball with Valencia before United win a corner.

21. 86'

    Park's cross to Rooney wasted as the England striker doesn't read the winger's intention.

22. 86'

    And another throw...

23. 86'

    Williams clears for a United throw-in as Jones tries to create an opening.

24. 85'

    De Gea's goal-kick sent long...

25. 84'

    Ferguson turns to Valencia's energy and industry to retain the lead. Rooney now the lone striker - United will obviously try to keep the ball and run the ball down.
