Man U beat Boro

6:43 am on 31 December 2008

Manchester United's Bulgarian footballer Dimitar Berbatov scored in the 69th minute to seal a 1-0 win against Middlesbrough in the English Premier League at Old Trafford.

Berbatov's goal - a real poacher's effort after a failed goalmouth clearance - ensured the Premier League champions extended their run without conceding a league goal to more than 10 hours.

United remain third on the table, seven points behind leaders Liverpool, with two games in hand.
