Manchester United go top of the Premier League as they defeated Bolton on Reebok stadium by 1-0. Dimiter Berbatovs 90th minute goal was enough for United to secure 3 points.
Berbatov headed home from close range after a fine cross from Carlos Tevez on the right in the 90th minute just as the game was heading towards a draw.
For the preceding 89 minutes United had been thwarted by Jussi Jaaskelainen.
The Bolton keeper saved superbly from two Cristiano Ronaldo free-kicks and also a header from the United winger.
United also equal Chelsea's record of 10 consecutive clean sheet they set on 2004-05 season.

What a finish by United. Frankly speaking, we were very fortunate to get that goal so late into the match.
