Paul Scholes was United's Manchester derby-day hero, as he clinched a very late winner to keep The Reds in the Premier League Title race with Chelsea. The veteran midfielder hailed the team's performance in the 'massive game', as he earned Man-of-the-Match...

Scholes made it three late Manchester derby wins, after Michael Owen and Wayne Rooney had won two derbies at Old Trafford past the 90 minute mark. Substitute Gabriel Obertan exchanged passes with Patrice Evra out on the left flank, as Evra floated in a cross directly onto the on-rushing veteran's noggin... the rest (could potentially be) history !

"It's a massive game for fans of both teams and I know how much this will mean to our fans, and I can assure you it means exactly the same to us," Scholes told the media after the win. "It's great, obviously. To win in a Manchester derby is a big thing, whatever way you do it, and that's three times this season where we've managed to score in the last minute to win games and it's a nice feeling !"

"We just keep going. Some teams play for a draw - whether City were doing that I don't know - but we're not a team who ever plays for a draw. We want to win all our games and that guarantees that we'll go right to the end."  

United have now done the League double over City this season, despite our 'noisy neighbours' riches. Carlos Tevez has already scored four goals against The Reds, but the defence kept him at-bay today ! - With players from all the various nations, the tie was nicely poised to display some of the World Cup talent... and to kick-start some fans into World Cup Betting ! 

"I think we deserved it," he rightly said. "We had a couple of great chances in the first half and could've gone in one or two goals up. City had a couple of chances but I thought, in the main, that we defended brilliantly. The back four were fantastic, Edwin was great and we've managed to sneak it in the end."

"We felt comfortable. I think in the last 20 minutes, when you're pushing men forward to try and get the winner, you know there's a chance you might be a bit open. But they were restricted mainly to shots outside the box and with a keeper like Edwin, it's difficult to beat him from there. It's a big result for us. Obviously Chelsea are still in a strong position, but we've done all we can here today to keep the pressure on them."

Carlo Ancelotti's side take on Spurs later today, in what promises to be a tough test...
