PREMIER LEAGUE REVIEW
Premier League: United and Arsenal held to draws
Cameron Jerome put Birmingham ahead as he grabbed his fifth goal of the campaign after United failed to clear a corner from James McFadden after 39 minutes.
United finally drew level after 63 minutes through an own goal from Scott Dann. The central defender was under pressure from Park when he turned a low centre from Evra past Hart. Blues players and manager Alex McLeish were incensed the goal was allowed and referee Mark Clattenburg consulted with one of his assistants before awarding the goal.
Darren Fletcher was sent off for a second bookable offence, but both sides held on to claim a point - Birmingham's record 12th game unbeaten in the top flight.
In the day's other game, substitute Tomas Rosicky snatched a crucial point for Premier League title chasers Arsenal as they drew 2-2 against a battling Everton side at a snowy Emirates Stadium.
Leon Osman headed the visitors into a deserved lead after 12 minutes. However, the midfielder then deflected Denilson's shot past Tim Howard as the Gunners levelled before the break.
Steven Pienaar's breakaway goal looked to have won it with eight minutes to go, only for Rosicky to grab a crucial strike in added time as Arsenal cut the deficit on leaders Chelsea down to three points.
Blues run continues

Blues were incensed referee Mark Clattenburg allowed the equaliser to stand after 63, cancelling Cameron Jerome's first-half opener, and he consulted with one of his assistants before awarding the goal.
The Red Devils ended with 10 men after midfielder Darren Fletcher was sent off in the closing stages for a second bookable offence.
The draw enabled Blues to make club history in achieving their longest ever unbeaten top flight run of 12 games - a run stretching back to October.
Sir Alex Ferguson had demanded a response after the FA Cup reversal against Leeds and made seven changes to his starting line-up.
He could not have complained about the commitment and determination of his players and they completely dominated the opening 45 minutes and yet trailed to Birmingham's only shot on goal from Jerome.
But Birmingham showed the tenacity and fighting spirit which has been their trademark during an 11-game unbeaten run leading into this fixture.
And in the second half they posed more of a threat via the pacey Christian Benitez and United's Tomasz Kuszczak was the busier of the two keepers.
United dominated possession from the first whistle and City midfielder Barry Ferguson blocked a shot from Fletcher at the expense of a corner.
Birmingham were closing down in typical fashion but they were guilty of some poor distribution in the early stages.
Fletcher teed up Paul Scholes in space 20 yards out and it needed James McFadden to get in an important block at the expense of a corner.
Wayne Rooney got the better of Birmingham skipper Stephen Carr, who misjudged a pass down the line from Patrice Evra, and it needed McFadden to get in a vital block at the far post to keep out Luis Antonio Valencia's shot.
City keeper Joe Hart was tested for the first time after 24 minutes when he reacted quickly to block a shot from Rooney who had been found in space by Valencia.
It was one-way traffic towards the home goal and Rooney headed wide from a Fletcher centre.
McFadden brought down Scholes 25 yards out but Valencia's free-kick was charged down by Lee Bowyer.
Park Ji-Sung had an opportunity when running onto a Fletcher through-ball but he lost his balance when under pressure from Carr.
United appealed in vain for a penalty after claiming Carr had handled a pile-driver from Michael Carrick.
It was non-stop attacking from United and Dann threw his body in the way of another shot from Carrick.
But after 39 minutes Birmingham stunned United by taking the lead in their first worthwhile attack from Jerome.
The former Cardiff player forced a corner when his shot was blocked by Scholes.
United failed to deal with McFadden's centre, Bowyer headed the ball back across goal and it bounced off Johnny Evans to Jerome, who applied the finishing touch for his fifth goal of the campaign.
Birmingham then squandered a great chance to double their lead.
They found themselves in a two against one situation on the counter-attack but Benitez lost control and allowed Carrick to make a vital tackle when Jerome would have had a clear run on goal.
Fletcher became the first player to be yellow-carded after 44 minutes for a crude challenge on Bowyer.
Benitez found himself in a promising position in the United box at the start of the second half but was dispossessed by Wes Brown.
But the Ecuador international forced a low save out of Kuszczak after United had failed to fully clear a Sebastian Larsson corner.
United finally drew level after 63 minutes through an own goal from Dann.
The central defender was under pressure from Park when he turned a low centre from Evra past Hart.
Park was immediately substituted and replaced by Ryan Giggs.
Birmingham tried to retaliate and Benitez turned away from Evans and had a fierce shot beaten out by Kuszczak.
Carr, who has just returned from suspension, collected his sixth booking of the season for bringing down Evra but Rooney's free-kick was deflected wide.
Larsson was booked for dissent after feeling he should have been awarded a free-kick following a challenge by Evra.
Hart held onto a low Valencia drive and Scholes fired over the bar as United searched for the winner.
But their hopes were ended when Fletcher was sent off for a second bookable offence after 84 minutes for a foul on Jerome.
Birmingham 1 - 1 Manchester United
I LOVE RED DEVILS.

McMahon said he has his own security at his “beck and call.” McMahon tersely told Orton not to confront him ever again. He slammed the door in Orton’s face, then Orton walked down the hallway only to find DiBiase and Rhodes. Rhodes thanked Orton for threatening them last week; it really inspired them. DiBiase said they want to return the favor by sitting ringside when Orton faces Kofi. He said if Kofi doesn’t win, then it’s just like last week – they’re going to kick Orton out of the Legacy. “And then we’re going to beat the hell out of you,” Cody said. Orton glared at them before DiBiase and Rhodes walked off. Nice segment.
In-ring: Randy Orton’s music hit to bring out Orton with DiBiase and Rhodes already ringside. Cole plugged Steve Austin’s “Condemned” box-office bust movie airing after Raw tonight. (No, they didn’t actually mention it was a box-office bust.)
KOFI KINGSTON vs. RANDY ORTON
Kofi took it to Orton early on before dropkicking Orton through the ropes to the outside. Orton then kicked him away again and Orton stared at DiBiase and Rhodes, who stared at him to say, “Show us something.” Orton stumbled on the floor before they cut to break.
Back from break, Orton was in control as the announcers talked up Hart-McMahon to come. Orton continued to work over Kofi while they cut to shots of DiBiase and Rhodes sitting ringside watching intently. The announcers sold not knowing whether they want Orton to be successful or not. Kofi then made a comeback, but they collided mid-air. Both men came to their feet after a pause and Kofi hit a top-rope splash for a two count center ring. Kofi then tried the Trouble in Paradise, but Orton blocked and immediately dropped Kofi with the RKO for the pin and the win. After the bell sounded, DiBiase and Rhodes no-sold the victory. They remained in their seats with blank looks on their faces. Orton left the ring and turned back to look at DiBiase and Cody, who eventually stood up and folded their arms.
WINNER: Orton at 11:02. Okay match. Just didn’t move into a higher gear and Kofi seems to have lost some of his edge after peaking at MSG with the Boom Drop. The deal with DiBiase and Rhodes has potential for good follow-up next week, but this whole segment seemed to be “just there” this week.

Beckford strike earns shock Leeds win

It is six years since Leeds' loyal fans have made this particular trip - and not since 1981 have they returned across the Pennines celebrating victory. But in manager Simon Grayson they have a man with the club in his heart, and in Beckford they have a striker capable of shooting them to better things.
Those are things to cling to when your once proud club has struck financial strife so deep it sends you tumbling into League One.
And when Beckford's 20th goal of the campaign trundled past Tomasz Kuszczak, you could just sense the hosts would not be saved - not even by the five minutes of stoppage time that must have shredded a few nerves before that final glorious release.
In a sense, Sir Alex Ferguson was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Normally, a week involving two cup matches, one against a side from two levels below, at home, would offer an obvious opportunity to blood a few of his youngsters.
Yet Leeds are no ordinary League One outfit.
Even if they were not surging clear at the top, fuelled by a confidence manager Simon Grayson has painstakingly built up during his time at the helm, this could never be a normal fixture.
The sight of Eddie Gray and Alex Stepney in the press box was a reminder of one era when the Roses rivals fought battles at the very top. The presence of an injured Rio Ferdinand in the directors' box triggered more memories.
In addition, the presence of 9,000 visiting supporters created an atmosphere that crackled from the first whistle, long after minor scuffles outside had reminded everyone that there is no love lost between the two whatsoever.
Leeds were primed and ready. The home side crucially stood off, the sheer ferocity of the visitors' approach catching the less experienced members of their team by surprise.
The Yorkshire outfit were already on top when first Dimitar Berbatov, then Danny Welbeck, lost possession inside the Leeds half.
Jonathan Howson spotted his opportunity and launched a long ball over the top for Beckford, who had stolen half a yard on Wes Brown. The Manchester United defender was only playing because Nemanja Vidic had been injured in the warm-up and must have thought he had got away with it as Beckford's control took the ball away from him.
But Kuszczak was slow to react and Beckford had time to nip the ball beyond the Pole and send it rolling over the line. Grayson, a Leeds fan as a kid and a Leeds player as an adult, led the jubilant celebrations, fully aware of what this particular hostility means on both sides of the Pennines.
Their ecstasy would have only lasted five minutes if Jason Crowe had not been quick-witted enough to get back onto the goal-line as Wayne Rooney charged onto Berbatov's reverse pass. Rooney bore down on the Leeds goal, then beat Casper Ankergren with a low shot that was heading in until Crowe scrambled it away.
If anything, the second period was even more fractious as United's desperation for an equaliser - and Leeds' to stop them - increased.
Welbeck was denied by Ankergren's right leg when he let fly for the bottom corner after charging into the box. The youngster also set up Berbatov, but again Ankergren came out on top.
Ferguson decided it was time for the reinforcements, which are always readily available if things are going wrong in such circumstances.
This time it was Ryan Giggs and Antonio Valencia, although the response was muted and ten minutes later Michael Owen was on as well.
It is almost a month since Owen scored that hat-trick in Wolfsburg, since when he has not started a game.
That lack of match practice was evident as, with virtually his first touch, he scuffed his shot after getting himself in the perfect position to turn home Valencia's cut-back.
Rooney blasted over from a similar position before Leeds countered and Beckford skimmed the far post with a shot across the face of goal.
Robert Snodgrass came even closer shortly afterwards when his free-kick shook the angle of bar and post with Kuszczak beaten.
As is their nature, United pushed and pushed. But the equaliser would not come as their failure to retain possession allowed Leeds to celebrate a famous victory.
