: : Manchester United 3-1 Tottenham Hotspur : :

Manchester United kept up the hunt for the title with victory over Tottenham Hotspur.

A single piece of brilliance from Nani and two Ryan Giggs penalties sent Manchester United back to the Barclays Premier League summit at Old Trafford.

When Ledley King headed Tottenham level with 20 minutes left, it seemed the Red Devils' title hopes would finally be snuffed out.

But, put through by Federico Macheda, Nani produced an incredible chipped finish to beat Heurelho Gomes before Giggs belted home his second penalty to seal the win.
