There's the final whistle! Birmingham have denied Manchester United thanks to Lee Bowyer's late, late equaliser!
90+4'
Foster boots the ball out for a throw and this could be the last chance for either side... Fletcher dispossessed at the edge of the box... then a bit of head tennis but Birmingham clear.

Javier Hernandez has come on for Gibson.
90+3'
The corner is cleared by United look ragged... Rooney comes away on the break down the left but his attempted cross is appalling.
90+2'
Zigic wins a corner for Birmingham as they go for the jugular! Four minutes of stoppage time to play.
90+1'
Fergie will be livid when he sees that - a handball by Zigic with the arm he was also using to hold down his marker - and there may have been an offside in there for good measure. But the goal stands!

Now it is United's turn to be pegged back inside their own box... Birmingham threatening.

87'

84'
The corner finds Vidic again, but he fails to make proper contact with the header and is furious with himself.

VIDIC!! Gets a free header from a United corner and sends it powerfully goalwards, but it is too close to Foster who palms it over the bar!
82'

BIRMINGHAM: Nikola Zigic comes on for Jean Beausejour.
81'
Down goes Hleb and Birmingham want a penalty... no dice says Lee Mason!
80'
Liam Ridgwell knows where the goal is, and is getting forward with increasing regularity.
79'
Giggs clatters into Bowyer, who stays down making rather a meal of it.
77'
Berbatov is back getting his hands dirty and winning possession in his own box. Have he and Rooney swapped souls?
76'
Gibson! Much-ballyhooed long-shooting ability in scant evidence as Rooney tees him up and he absolutely batters it into row Z.
