GOAL!!! Manchester United 3-0 Aston Villa (Van Persie). In an instant, United storm forward and show just why they're champions. Kagawa is given far too room in the middle of the park and he sets Ryan Giggs clear and racing away with only Guzan to beat. The Welshman elects to find Robin van Persie rather than shoot himself and the Dutchman effortlessly evades the attentions of a Villa defender and from close-range, hammers in off the post to complete his hat trick inside 33 minutes. What a player.

Yellow Card Patrice Evra
Patrice Evra is now going into the book after a mistimed challenge on Charles N'Zogbia. Paul Lambert will be pleased with the way his side have reacted to going 2-0 down so early on. This is still very much a procession at the moment for the hosts.

Goal Robin van Persie
GOAL!! Manchester United 2-0 Aston Villa (Van Persie). That is a quite magnificent goal from Robin van Persie. From the goal-kick that resulted from Benteke's miss, Rooney receives the ball in central-midfield. The England international picks out another raking long-range pass over the top of the Villa defence in search of Van Persie. Will the Dutchman try and bring down a difficult looping ball? Absolutely not. He unleashes a sledge-hammer of a first-time volley that has flashed past Guzan in an instant. United are cruising to the Premier League title now.

Goal Robin van Persie
GOAL!! Manchester United 1-0 Aston Villa (Van Persie) What did I say about an early United goal? We've been playing for 90 seconds and already the hosts are ahead. Wayne Rooney gets it all started with a wonderful cross-field ball for Antonio Valencia Rafael eventually swings the ball in for Ryan Giggs to tap across the face of goal. Waiting is Robin van Persie to slam home his 22nd Premier League goal of the season.
