United V/s Roma : Review


Another good night at Old Trafford see us go past Roma and head into the Semi-Finals....against Barcelona....
It was a really good night mainly because we rested C.Ronaldo and Rooney (who was substituted later on), and finally after 13 painstaking months, Gary Neville is back, and every time he touched the ball the fans cheered, he wasn't playing in his natural full back position though, he was positioned as a defensive mid fielder, and Ferdinand played the full 90 minutes.......And we were able to rest C.Ronaldo for the next crucial Premier League tie against a deflated Arsenal after their departure at the hands of Liverpool...
We played really played fantastically, breaking at the speed of light, and getting behind Roma's defense regularly , Doni had to make 5 or 6 really good saves, to keep his team in the tie.....Even Roma had their chances....and what chances they had....


A not-penalty was awarded on a diving Manchini..... De Rossi - World Cup penalty scorer - was giving the ball, and what does he do?? He shoots High , Wide and Handsome!!! - Justice was served - Altho after that Roma seemed to step up the challenge...
But Hargreaves played some really juicy ball into the Roma area causing their defenders problems and ultimately, it was his inch-perfect pass that lead to Tevez's stooping header, and us qualifying on an aggregate of 3 - 0......
Next League match is against Arsenal, then we travel to Nou Camp to slug it out against Barcelona....
Good Luck Reds and welcome back Gary Neville!!!!

until the next match that Man United win, this is nuspeed signing out.....
Chaoo and take care.......

he didn't dive like Ronaldo ..but yes it wasn't a penalty ..as he first got the ball ..but his trailing leg caught Mancini and he went to the ground
