Victory at Boro edges United closer

Saturday, May 2, 2009
Goals from Ryan Giggs and Ji-Sung Park gave Manchester United FC a comfortable 2-0 win at Middlesbrough FC on Saturday to extend their lead in the Premier League to six points with four games remaining.

Relegation fight
The champions were unruffled by a Boro side who offered surprisingly little fight considering they are in grave danger of being relegated. Giggs, who made his 800th appearance for United in Wednesday's 1-0 UEFA Champions League semi-final first-leg victory against Arsenal FC, fired the visitors in front after 25 minutes with a sweet strike from the edge of the area and Park made sure of the points early in the second half after a clever pass from Wayne Rooney. United have 80 points from 34 matches with Liverpool FC, who play at home to Newcastle United FC on Sunday, on 74 from 34.
