City scores. 3-3. Another minute added on to allow for the time eaten up by their celebration = total of 5 minutes added time. Ref thought he had won with his "let's play until city equalises" move.

Carrick comes on for Anderson so another 30 seconds is added to the clock as per the norm for substitutions = total time added on: 5:30.

Giggs says screw you ref, I seen you lot do this before, splits the defence to Owen who scores at 95:28 with an astonishing 2 perfectly legitimate seconds left on the clock to leave city and the ref gobsmacked.

Refute.
I PVR'd this match. From the moment the ball went in the net to make the score 3-3 to the moment the match kicked off again, it was 51 seconds, not one minute. Subtract nine seconds, the match should have been called at 95:21, not 95:30.
