Manchester United produced an astonishing five-goal second-half show to overhaul Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford and move three points clear of title rivals Liverpool once more.

Also this match leads the great striker Cristiano Ronando to reach to the top goal scorer(17 goals) of the Barclays Premier League tournament so far. 

Two goals adrift at the interval following close-range strikes by Darren Bent and Luka Modric, United pulled one back through a controversial Cristiano Ronaldo penalty.

Wayne Rooney levelled before Ronaldo's diving header put United in front, with Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov wrapping up an amazing win that strengthens the Red Devils' claims on an 18th league title.

There was no 800th Manchester United appearance for Ryan Giggs as Manchester United attempted to leapfrog Liverpool and go straight back to the Barclays Premier League summit.

Berbatov nearly got on the end of a Darren Fletcher through ball. Nani then could not turn on to a back heel from countryman Cristiano Ronaldo.

In between, Aaron Lennon had a spirited run at the United defence without coming close to scoring the first goal in three meetings between the sides this season, the Red Devils' Carling Cup triumph last month coming courtesy of a penalty shoot-out.
