The most unlikely of heroes rescued United from an embarrassing 0-0 draw against 18th-placed Sunderland at Old Trafford on Saturday evening. Nemanja Vidic scored his eighth United goal, and surely his most important, in the 91st minute to keep United in touch at the top of the table.
The Serbian was first to react after Michael Carrick’s deflected shot hit a post and bounced back across goal, with Black Cats stopper Marton Fulop stranded. Fulop had frustrated the Reds time and again, albeit aided by a Sunderland side so lacking in attacking ambition that their fans cheered a second-half throw-in near United’s corner flag as if their side had gone in front.
