Ryan Giggs scored two penalties for Manchester United to keep the pressure on Chelsea in the English Premier League football title race by beating Tottenham 3-1 on Saturday. The 36-year-old Giggs started and ended the scoring in the second half to take the defending champion two points clear of Chelsea, which hosts Stoke on Sunday. Tottenham captain Ledley King equalised with a header after Giggs's first spot kick, but Nani restored United's lead before the Welsh midfielder struck again. Tottenham still occupies the fourth spot. United had much to fear from Spurs, which may not have won at Old Trafford since 1989 but had beaten top-four rivals Arsenal and Chelsea in winning seven of its last eight league matches. |
