The English Premier League title race remains too close to call after Liverpool and Manchester United both won this afternoon.
Liverpool 4 - Blackburn 0
Liverpool briefly overhauled United at the summit after a Fernando Torres brace helped them to a 4-0 victory over Blackburn in the early kick-off.
Man United 2u00a0- Sunderland 1
But the Red Devils made up the deficit only a few hours later, Italian teenager Federico Macheda scoring his second consecutive winner in the league as Sir Alex Ferguson's side defeated Sunderland 2-1 at the Stadium of Light.
It means that United remain a point clear of Liverpool with a game in hand.
Chelsea 4 - Bolton 3
Third-placed Chelsea kept in touch with a 4-3 win against Bolton, who staged a remarkable comeback at Stamford Bridge having been 0-4 down with 20 minutes to go.
