Victory moved United two points in front of Chelsea with two games to play as they once again scored important late goals, this time in a match which was all square at 1-1 with 10 minutes left.
However, Chelsea will regain top spot in the Premier League if they win at home to Stoke City on Sunday.
United’s joy was tempered by fears England striker Wayne Rooney, who sat out this match, may miss the end of the season with a groin injury.
“I think it will probably take two or three weeks to be honest with you,” said United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
The first of Giggs’s penalties, awarded after Patrice Evra was brought down in the box by Benoit Assou-Ekotto, gave United the lead in the 58th minute.
But Tottenham, fresh from wins over Arsenal and Chelsea, equalised in the 70th minute when injury-prone central defender Ledley King headed in a corner.
United, though, hit back when Portuguese ace Nani broke down the right and chipped goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes.
Veteran midfielder Giggs then sealed United’s victory with his second spot-kick four minutes from time after Nani went down under a challenge from Wilson Palacios.
“We have beaten probably the form team of the league which says a lot for us. We can’t ask for more,” Ferguson said. “We played well, that was important, but most important was we kept our nerve.”
Tottenham will lose fourth place, and the last Champions League qualifying spot on offer to English clubs, if Manchester City win away to Arsenal in Saturday’s late kick-off match.
At the other end of the table, West Ham moved six points clear of the relegation zone with a come from behind 3-2 win at home to Wigan.
The Hammers were 1-0 down in just the fourth minute after Jonathan Spector’s own-goal but were back on level terms when in-form striker Araujo Ilan turned in Carlton Cole’s cross in the 31st minute.
And the east Londoners took the lead when Radoslav Kovac followed-up on the stroke of half-time after Mark Noble’s 25-yard free-kick was clawed away by Chris Kirkland.
Wigan saw Hugo Rodallega equalise from an early second half corner.
However, Scott Parker eased the pressure on Hammers boss Gianfranco Zola with a 25-yard drive in the 77th minute.
Hull moved closer to the drop after Sunderland won 1-0 at the KC Stadium thanks to Darren Bent’s seventh minute tap-in, his 25th goal of the season.
Hull, six points adrift with two games to play and a massively inferior goal difference, could have equalised before half-time but Jimmy Bullard’s penalty hit the post.
Both sides received a red card late in
the first half after Hull’s US striker Jozy Altidore and Sunderland’s Alan Hutton clashed.
Aruna Dindane scored twice as already relegated Portsmouth came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 away to Bolton Wanderers.
The hosts, all but assured of Premier League football next season, scored twice in three first half minutes through Ivan Klasnic and Kevin Davies before Dindane struck after the break for the FA Cup finalists.
Blackburn Rovers and Wolves, still not mathematically safe, drew 1-1 at Molineux after New Zealand international Ryan Nelsen’s first half goal for the visitors was cancelled out by Wolves striker Slyvan Ebanks-Blake’s effort nine minutes from time. Sunday’s other matches will see Aston Villa continue their push for Champions League football in a derby against Birmingham City while second-bottom Burnley have a daunting test at home to Liverpool and Everton face Fulham. —
