ARSENAL 2 MANCHESTER UNITED 1

Samir Nasri's double strike handed Arsenal a deserved win over title rivals United in a lively encounter full of chances.

Arsenal's Nicklas Bendtner and United's Wayne Rooney fired over when unmarked in the first half before Nasri's 20-metre volley deflected in off Gary Neville in the 22nd minute.

Three minutes after the interval a Cesc Fabregas through ball set up Nasri's crashing drive which doubled the lead. United substitute Rafael's fine late volley set up a tense finale.
