    Premier League: Manchester United's Wayne Rooney earns win over Reading

    Manchester United moved 15 points clear at the top of the Premier League with a 1-0 win which kept managerless Reading in deep relegation trouble.

    After the final whistle, Ferguson was demanded full focus from his side as they close in on what seems an inevitable title. "You don't get points and medals for being complacent and we won't be," he said. "I think the players are conscious of the importance of the games now and that concentration, which has improved, has helped us do that [in terms of keeping clean sheets]. Meanwhile, Dolan was furious with referee Mason for not awarding a penalty for Vidic's push on Mariappa. "It was a clear penalty but I think the referee thought I was on work experience and, 'perfect a little 1-0 loss for Reading' and would be fine," he said.
