Manchester United recorded a fourth successive
Premier League win after a 2-1 win against Stoke
City at Old Trafford.
Things seemed to be going United's way when
Marouane Fellaini bagged his first Old Trafford
goal in a red shirt with a towering header at the
back post.
But Stoke hit back when Steven N'Zonzi rifled
home his stinging drive into the far corner for
his first Premier League goal of the season and
his first goal anywhere since March to make it
1-1 at the break.
There was some debate about who scored the
winning goal as Juan Mata's free-kick looked to
go straight through a crowd of players although
Marcos Rojo claimed that he got the all-
important touch.
David de Gea made a stunning save to deny
Mame Biram Diouf and then Ashley Young came
to United's rescue with a sensational goal line
clearance in the fourth minute of stoppage time
as the hosts held on to move to within a point of
third-placed Southampton.
