Manchester United got three full points celebrating 25 years Sir Alex Ferguson in charge, at Old Trafford Saturday 05/11/2011. The only goal scored by West Brown own-goal, deflected from Welbeck header.
Summary of the highlights:
41' Nani's corner headed out before Jones thumps an effort narrowly over the bar. Wasn't far off the target. Probably United's best of this half.
42' Sunderland with five attempts at goal to United's four as Ji Dong-Won embarks on a run before lifting a shot over at the other end. Should have done better with that chance.
45+1' GOAL! Welbeck rises unchallenged to head home Nani's corner. What a poor goal to lose. United probably don't deserve it, but they have the lead. Sloppy play by Sunderland.
62' So close to United's second as Richardson knocks Hernandez's header off the line from Nani's corner. That would have killed off the visitors.
68' Brilliant goalkeeping by Westwood to save from Rooney then tip Evra's shot over the bar. So close to the killer second goal for United.
77' Bendtner so close to getting on the end of Larsson's cross. How close was that. Inches away from the equaliser as the ball races across the face of the home goal.
