92'
Goal scoredDimitar Berbatov. The Reds finally seal the win with their first attempt since Hernandez's goal. Fletcher, Giggs and Nani link up well with the Portuguese clipping over the Chelsea defence for Berbatov. The Bulgarian shows his class by lifting the ball over the advancing Hilario and into the net.
90'
 United can't seem to get the ball into Chelsea territory as the Blue seek the equaliser. Kalou almost makes the most of a powerful cross six yards out, but can't control the ball.

 Daniel Sturridge has a great chance to pull one back for the Londoners after being played into the right side of area, but after shaping to shoot with his left, Van der Sar sticks out a leg to block.

SubstitutionOff, Fabio Da Silva. On, Chris Smalling.
