Paul Scholes' last-gasp goal stunned Manchester City as Manchester
United caused their neighbours more injury-time heartbreak at Eastlands,
as they won 1-0.
After Michael Owen's winner in the sixth-minute of stoppage time
at Old Trafford in September, there were just 17 seconds of the
three additional minutes left this time around as Scholes rose unchallenged
to head home Patrice Evra's left-wing cross from 10 yards.
It was an amazing finish to a game that seemed destined to end
goalless.
For Scholes, who signed a one-year contract extension on Friday,
it was his 149th Red Devils' goal and the perfect way to retain
the outside title hopes United still cherish.
