Match Commentary
90' Just time for one more rendition of 'Country Road' before Steve Bennett blows for full-time. United win 3-0 and take a one-point lead at the top of the Premiership |
89' Make that a hat-trick. Scholes' throughball holds up nicely for Giggs, whose low cross is hooked in by Van Nistelrooy, albeit off the shin of the unfortunate Harley. 3-0 United |
88' Brown rises to deny Marlet the chance to reach another Harley cross. The game petering out with United in cruise control thanks to Van Nistelrooy's brace |
