Manchester United – Arsenal

1. Can the Gunners dethrone United and win the Double in their own back yard? Join us for live commentary at 20.00 BST

2. The teams are on their way out of the Old Trafford tunnel - it's one of the biggest nights the Premiership has seen

3. Thunderous noise inside the stadium - Arsenal could be just 90 minutes away from Double glory

4. United get things under way - Forlan is up front and Ruud van Nistelrooy takes a place on the bench

5. United play it forward - but that's far too long, and it's a goal-kick to the Gunners

6. 1'

   Vieira flicks on: Arsenal, though, can't make anything of that

7. 2'

   It is, as you'd expect, a frantic start... Parlour crosses and Wiltord shoots. Blanc is there with a great block, and it's an Arsenal corner...

8. 3'

   United clear and attempt to break with Giggs: the best he can get is a throw down the right

9. 3'

   Arsenal are penalised for a foul on Keane, and again United watch as the ball eludes them and goes for a Gunners goal-kick

10. 4'

    Throw to Arsenal, midway inside their own half...

11. 5'

    Kanu has a shot from a long way out, and it fizzes harmlessly wide of the post

12. 6'

    Forlan's looking busy - he sets United in motion and Scholes tries his luck from long range. It deflects over the top for a corner...

13. 7'

    It's taken quickly, and the ball is only just diverted away from the waiting Wes Brown

14. 7'

    The momentum ends as Giggs' attempted pass is too powerful for Keane to keep in play

15. 8'

    A long Phil Neville throw brings another corner - United stepping up the pace. Seaman, though, is adjudged to have been fouled

16. 9'

    Brown tidies up well under pressure from Wiltord: the atmosphere and the game are both bubbling along nicely so far

17. 10'

    Possession football from United - until, that is, Brown misplaces his attempted pass to Solskjaer

18. 11'

    Keane is penalised for a high challenge on Vieira: the Gunners have the free-kick

19. 12'

    Ljungberg does well for Arsenal, carrying the fight forward - they're keeping the ball intelligently

20. 13'

    Brown eventually intercepts and Barthez takes charge of the situation

21. 14'

    Forlan overruns the ball under pressure, but Scholes does well and then Lauren stops Silvestre down the left

22. 15'

    Brown is penalised for a foul some 35 yards out - what can Arsenal do with this?

23. 15'

    ...not much - the ball is cleared and the visitors are forced to go all the way back to keeper Seaman

24. 16'

    Solskjaer is caught offside from a through ball - Forlan was also chasing

25. 17'

    Still goalless here as Solskjaer is penalised for a foul on Edu

26. 18'

    Not much at all in the way of chances - plenty in the way of frenzied midfield activity

27. 19'

    Ljungberg loses the ball in midfield: Veron crosses, Forlan can't get there

28. 19'

    Scholes crashes in with a late challenge on Edu - it's a bad one...

29. 20'

    ...and he gets a yellow card. Not the most controversial refereeing decision there's ever been

30. 21'

    Parlour steals the ball - United get it back and roar forward, only to be stopped by a whistle against Forlan for a push

31. 22'

    The home fans didn't like that much, but it looked to be the right decision

32. 23'

    Another bad challenge from the home side - Phil Neville on Wiltord by the touchline

33. 23'

    He's booked as well... meantime, the ball is back with Barthez, who tries to set his side going again

34. 24'

    It comes to nothing, and so does a Kanu-led break for the Gunners

35. 25'

    Silvestre gives the ball away inside the visitors' half, then Arsenal follow that lead. Scrappy but interesting... Keane fouls Vieira and is booked

36. 26'

    So we'll have a minute or two of injury time at the end of this half, it seems

37. 27'

    Vieira is back on his feet and Arsenal can take the free-kick

38. 27'

    Cole chases, but Barthez is there first and gets Scholes on his way

39. 28'

    ...there's another Scholes foul on Vieira: he needs to watch it, and United are looking a bit ragged

40. 29'

    Corner to Arsenal after a touchline scramble - again, the home fans are incensed by that decision

41. 30'

    It's dealt with - a free-kick is given against Edu as the home side attempt to break out

42. 30'

    Then Lauren is adjudged to have obstructed Giggs down the left - free-kick in a good crossing position for United...

43. 31'

    Scholes and Keown appear to tangle... Veron skims the ball in low and Seaman saves well

44. 32'

    Veron spreads play to Blanc just inside the United half... they've had plenty of the ball, but Arsenal's fine defending has stopped them from creating much with it

45. 33'

    Forlan fouls Campbell on the edge of the Gunners area - free-kick, and the visitors will be more than happy with their work so far

46. 34'

    Arsenal enjoy a spell of good possession near the United area, but Lauren overruns the ball and the threat is gone

47. 35'

    Now United are on the way forward once more... Keane, Forlan and Giggs are all involved before Campbell clears and Veron concedes a free-kick

48. 36'

    Good possession from Arsenal - then Campbell dallies and only a great Ray Parlour intervention stops him losing the ball to Giggs

49. 37'

    Dangerous stuff - but still no really clear-cut chances for the home side

50. 38'

    Can they create one now? Veron wins a corner...

51. 39'

    Vieira is resolute and heads the ball away magnificently. He'll have more to do now - Kanu concedes a free-kick near the area

52. 39'

    ...again, though, it's superb defending from Arsene Wenger's London side

53. 40'

    Five minutes, plus injury-time, until the break. As it stands, Arsenal will be champions and Double-winners

54. 41'

    But, 35 yards out and central, it's another United free-kick. Veron looks interested

55. 41'

    ...but his pass into the area is cleared: Edu, though, is booked for obstruction and it's another free-kick, this time further out

56. 42'

    Veron goes for a shot - it hits the wall and Ljungberg tries to feed Parlour, who is thwarted by a harsh offside flag

57. 43'

    Blanc crosses and the ball rebounds to Keane, whose shot from distance is well held by Seaman

58. 44'

    Ljungberg does well down the left, winning a throw from which Arsenal win a corner

59. 45'

    It's cleared: Parlour crosses it back, but too high for Wiltord

60. 45'

    Two minutes of added time to be played here...

61. 45'

    Silvestre plays it forward - too aimless, and Solskjaer's wearing a look of frustration about that

62. 45'

    Cole tries a snapshot from the edge of the area, but it's scuffed and apologises its way wide of Barthez' goal

63. 45'

    No goals at the break - Arsenal are 45 minutes away from clinching the championship and the Double at the home of deadly rivals United

64. 45'

    Arsenal start the second half: they take a matter of seconds to win a corner through Wiltord

65. 46'

    It's swung in and cleared - Cole plays it back, but the Gunners can't make anything of that

66. 47'

    Forlan escapes down the right and crosses low - Veron tries to get there, and David Seaman eventually gathers as the ball ricochets back towards him

67. 47'

    The most threatening move that United have put together so far

68. 48'

    Veron's charging forward again, but the move breaks down as Forlan fails to control the ball

69. 49'

    At the other end, Edu gets a low cross in after good work by Ljungberg and Wiltord - it just eludes Kanu and goes for a corner...

70. 50'

    Barthez punches and Ryan Giggs, back in his own area, completes the clearance

71. 50'

    ...then Giggs crosses to Forlan, and Campbell does well to usher it out for a corner

72. 51'

    It's a poor one and Arsenal clear with no problems - but a bright start to the second half

73. 51'

    Kanu tries his luck from long range: it's well hit, but Barthez is perfectly placed to gather

74. 52'

    An offside flag stops Ljungberg as he darts into the area: not a contentious decision that time

75. 53'

    Good running by Forlan: Campbell stops him and Veron, following up, balloons his attempted cross into the Stretford End

76. 54'

    Barthez scuffs his goal-kick but Brown is there to stop Wiltord as he tries to take advantage

77. 55'

    Another good Forlan run: his cross, though, is too close to the alert Seaman

78. 56'

    Suddenly, the goal that could be so vital - Ljungberg finds himself through on goal from Wiltord's pass: Barthez saves but Wiltord follows up to slot the ball into the net. 1-0 Arsenal!

79. 57'

    And that could clinch the double - Wiltord with a potentially historic contribution

80. 58'

    Ruud van Nistelrooy will be coming on for United as they search desperately for a way to turn this around

81. 58'

    Veron makes way for van Nistelrooy: can the Dutchman change things?

82. 59'

    Forlan, chasing back, fouls Edu to concede a free-kick: Arsenal come forward with Parlour...

83. 60'

    ...his cross is headed away. All the noise is coming from the visiting supporters just at the moment

84. 61'

    Van Nistelrooy tumbles in the area - both Keown and Campbell react furiously, accusing him of making the most of a challenge

85. 62'

    Another United foul: Kanu the victim, Giggs the guilty party

86. 63'

    Increasing signs of frustration among Sir Alex Ferguson's side

87. 63'

    In the middle of the mayhem, Arsenal are looking increasingly assured when they have the ball

88. 64'

    Increasing attempts to up the pace from the home side... Blanc is coming further and further forward, but gives away a free-kick

89. 65'

    He'll become the latest player to see a yellow card...

90. 66'

    ...Wiltord comes forward and looks for Ljungberg with a teasing cross...

91. 67'

    Barthez gets there first and looks to get United on the move straight away

92. 68'

    Keane prompting United forward again - they need two goals to keep their title hopes alive and deny the Gunners

93. 68'

    Forlan is off, Quinton Fortune on as Ferguson looks to shake things up for United with a little over 20 minutes left

94. 69'

    Giggs makes his best run of the night, weaving his way across the Arsenal defence, but Solskjaer can't make anything of it under pressure

95. 70'

    Scholes sprays a ball wide for Giggs - it's too hard, too high and gives Arsenal possession once again

96. 71'

    Parlour takes the fight forward for Arsenal once again...

97. 72'

    ...and is very close to freeing Wiltord in the area once again. Silvestre does well to tidy things up

98. 73'

    Giggs crosses, Keown heads clear and Wiltord is looking to break out...

99. 74'

    ...Ljungberg crosses and Vieira is robbed as he looks to shoot. That could have sealed matters

100. 74'

     The ball bounces to Fortune, but Arsenal are streaming back and win it again. Once more, Wenger's men are cool in possession. Kanu shoots - wide

101. 75'

     Fortune has a chance to cross, and can only flight the ball into the Stretford End. Time running out

102. 76'

     Keane and Giggs link: Giggs provides a poor final ball and Arsenal step in

103. 77'

     ...again the men in yellow are using the ball intelligently and patiently, frustrating United and their fans

104. 78'

     Ferguson's side are spending long spells inside their own half - they have to find an extra gear as we approach the final ten minutes

105. 79'

     Free-kick to United - inside their own half, though, and Vieira steps in to win it in any case

106. 80'

     ...and again, the Highbury side are keeping the ball with consummate coolness

107. 80'

     Ten minutes between Arsenal and the Double... or ten minutes for Manchester United to find two goals

108. 81'

     Scholes doing his utmost to get things moving - Silvestre is well-challenged by Arsenal as he moves to shoot

109. 82'

     Brown fouls Wiltord...then Giggs fouls Edu. It's frustration, pure and simple, from the Old Trafford players

110. 83'

     On the touchline, Ferguson ushers his side forward - but they haven't been able to create a chance in this second half yet

111. 84'

     Fortune on the ball - then Phil Neville hits a pass straight out of play

112. 84'

     Parlour has been tireless, and he picks up another loose ball in midfield. Lauren fouls Fortune, but it's miles away from the Arsenal goal. He gets booked...

113. 85'

     Solskjaer gets away - he crosses and it's cleared to Brown who is thwarted by a strong challenge. It's a corner...

114. 86'

     ...which Keane gets a head to and can only divert wide

115. 87'

     Huge noise from the travelling fans now, morose silence from the home faithful. Wiltord and Parlour have the ball - they can't keep it by the corner flag and it's a goal-kick

116. 88'

     Keane plays the ball in - too far ahead of Fortune. Lee Dixon is coming on for Arsenal, and Kanu will make way

117. 89'

     Just a few seconds separate Arsenal from their second Double under Arsene Wenger

118. 90'

     We're on the brink of injury time, and Arsenal - who need only a point for the title - lead 1-0 at Old Trafford

119. 90'

     Van Nistelrooy heads a cross down - and Vieira slams it out of harm's way

120. 90'

     Scholes hits a snapshot from outside the area as the ball rebounds to him - it slices off the outside of his boot and drifts wide

121. 90'

     This has been a magnificent performance by Arsenal, worthy of clinching the Double

122. 90'

     With seconds left, Parlour hits a shot which is deflected... Barthez gathers

123. 90'

     AND THE FINAL WHISTLE GOES - ARSENAL ARE CHAMPIONS AND DOUBLE-WINNERS

124. 90'

     Sylvain Wiltord's goal seals the glory at Old Trafford: it finishes 1-0 to the Gunners
