Paul Scholes' 100th Premier League goal was enough for Manchester
United to leapfrog back to into top spot.
Scholes settled a tense encounter with Wolves at Molineux 17 minutes
from time, when he kept a cool head to beat Marcus Hahnemann after
Jody Craddock's clearance had fallen nicely for the veteran midfielder.
Sir Alex Ferguson will hope the goal helps persuade Scholes to
sign a one-year contract extension he is presently stalling over.
However, Ferguson will also be fretting on the fitness of Wayne
Rooney after watching Sam Vokes waste a glorious chance to equalise
in stoppage time.
