Manchester derby voted best ever in Premier League

The Manchester derby at Old Trafford in September 2009 has been voted the best match in the Premier League's 20 Seasons awards.

Hosts Manchester United saw off the challenge from rivals Manchester City 4-3 courtesy of a strike from Michael Owen deep into stoppage time.

After the match, United boss Sir Alex Ferguson described the encounter as "probably the best derby of all time".

The derby won 18% of the vote, ahead of the Liverpool versus Newcastle United clash in 1996 which came second.

Arsenal's trip to Liverpool in April 2009 rounded off the top three.
