Giggs's name etched deeper into United history

May 12, 2008

Giggs, who has played a part in all 10 of the titles masterminded by manager Alex Ferguson and has 17 major winners' medals in his collection, has been an outstanding servant for United since coming through the club's youth system.

He has been used sparingly in recent weeks by Ferguson and has managed just four goals this season, but remains an enduring talent which was employed to perfection on a desperately tense afternoon.

    With Chelsea in the lead against Bolton, United's 1-0 advantage, given to them by Cristiano Ronaldo from the penalty spot after 33 minutes, looked vulnerable in the face of a bold effort from Wigan.

    But Giggs brought a calmness to United's midfield and then scored the vital second goal when he accepted a pass from Wayne Rooney, took his time and then with his famous left foot rolled the ball into the bottom corner of the net.
