Macheda does it again for Man Utd

Federico Macheda saved Manchester United for the second week running on Saturday,netting the decider in a 2-1 win at Sunderland. Macheda,whose debut goal in stoppage time secured a 3-2 win over Aston Villa last weekend,made another enormous contribution to the Premier League title race in the 76th minute after Kenwyne Jones had cancelled out Paul Scholess opener.

Chelsea led Bolton Wanderers 4-0 but ended up hanging on for a 4-3 win,scoring through Didier Drogba (2),Michael Ballack and Frank Lampard. United,with a game in hand,remain top on 71 points with Liverpool second on 70. Chelsea are third on 67 with Arsenal fourth on 61 after they came from behind to win 4-1 at Wigan Athletic.

It was an emotional day at Anfield,Liverpool as next Wednesdays 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster was marked with a minutes silence. The hosts took lead after five minutes when Torres hooked in a fierce shot and the Spaniard headed the second in the 33rd. A 25-metre drive by Daniel Agger and a David Ngog header late on completed the win.
