Dimitar Berbatov's last-minute header earned Manchester United a
1-0 win at Bolton and sent his side to the Premier League summit for
the first time this season.
Bolton goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen looked like denying the Red
Devils with a superb individual display.
But, after repelling three ferocious Cristiano Ronaldo free-kicks,
Jaaskelainen was eventually beaten as Carlos Tevez wriggled free
of the Trotters defence to cross for Berbatov, who powered home
a six-yard header.
Berbatov's effort was enough to see United leapfrog Liverpool,
who will now look to reclaim top spot by beating Everton at Anfield
on Monday, and show why Sir Alex Ferguson Ferguson was willing to
pay £30.75million for the Bulgarian.
