The midfielder couldn't have chose time to his intervention for greater dramatic effect .
With United four points behind leaders Chelsea with only four games remaining, they had to beat local rivals Manchester City to have any chance of winning the league.
With the match on a knife-edge, the score was still nil-all after 92 minutes of play when Scholes headed in a cross from Patrice Evra. The goal came just 17 seconds before the end of injury time.
It's so good news for the top clubs (except Chelsea) and even better news for the fans (except Chelsea fans). And in large part this exciting end to the season is thanks to one man: Paul Scholes.
The midfielder has made more than 350appearances for United, winning nine Premier League titles, three FA Cups and two League Cups.
The club's assistant manager Mike Phelan heaped praise on the star following Saturday's match, calling Scholes' stunning clincher "the icing on the cake". By this he means the small act that makes something good perfect. He described the touch as "vintage Scholes", meaning that it was typical of the player's style at the top of his game.Phelan also referred to Scholes as "maestro", a title of great respect given to a master musician. But Scholes isn't just a key player in a bigger team. As Phelan went on to say, "He was probably the conductor of the orchestra at times".
He really did a good job ,Paul is a legend Paul is a legend
