Scholes' late header clinches United win at City


Manchester United veteran Paul Scholes headed in a stoppage-time goal Saturday to clinch a 1-0 victory over Manchester City at the end of a drab derby in the Premier League.

The victory keeps United's hopes of winning a fourth straight title alive, with the defending champions only a point behind Chelsea before the league leaders were at Tottenham in the late match.

The loss weakens City's grip on the fourth Champions League place. Tottenham is only a point behind Roberto Mancini's team.
