Manchester United missed out on the opportunity to give Sir Alex Ferguson the perfect birthday present, as they dropped three points at home to a lowly Blackburn.
Decimated by injuries, United started with a central midfield pair of Rafael and Park, and found themselves two goals down just after half time.
The in-form Dimitar Berbatov restored parity with two goals in quick succession however, Blackburn scored again after some sloppy defending by the hosts, to take the points at Old Trafford.
