Chelsea cemented their top-four standing with a 1-0 victory over Manchester United which produced a dramatic finish.
Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson offered no complaints at the result at the final whistle, but was aggrieved to see big decisions go against his side. He told Sky Sports: "The team took their foot off the pedal. There was no edge to the game all day. I think Chelsea deserved to win. "I can't make any excuses in terms of the performance. Certainly refereeing decisions went against us. They surrounded the referee all day, four or five players all the time." Chelsea manager Rafa Benitez was delighted to pick up another three points, but admits the Blues must back up their performance against Tottenham on Wednesday. He told Sky Sports: "For us very game is massive now. This one obviously against the champions was tough, but we did really well. "We have to beat Tottenham next, which will not be easy on Wednesday and we still have Aston Villa and Everton, so we must carry on, concentrate on the next game."
