But goals from Dimitar Berbatov and Tom Huddlestone levelled matters only for Joe Cole to edge his team ahead with an 80th minute strike to make it 4-3.

Inevitably, the game wasn't done and Robbie Keane lashed home from the edge of the box to take it to 4-4. Seven goals or more was matched at [64.0].

It was a different story in Manchester where United never got above [1.28] in easily overcoming Bolton.
