Sir Alex Ferguson: Man Utd lift Premier League trophy

 
Sir Alex Ferguson marked his final match as manager of Manchester United at Old Trafford by lifting the Premier League trophy on behalf of his team. 

United beat Swansea 2-1 but had already won their 13th Premier League title and club's 20th championship on 22 April.

Ferguson, 71, was given a guard of honour before the match and addressed the crowd after the final whistle.
"Everyone at the club and you the fans have been the most fantastic experience of my life," said the emotional Scot. 

"Thank you. I have been very fortunate to manage some of the greatest players in the country. These players have won the championship in fantastic fashion. Well done to them.
"When we had bad times here, everyone stood by me and your job now is to stand by your new manager."
