Manchester United Thread

okay quick one..

Roma 0 - 2 Man Utd Ronny 39', Rooney 65'

both teams started the 2nd half strongly with Roma pressuring Man Utd. Almost like the first half, both teams never did much with their possession, losing out to the strong defence of both teams.. Roma almost equalised but Van Der Sar showed why he is numero uno..

Almost expected, anderson comes off for hargreaves.. And at the 65th minute, fergie's subsitution bore fruit. Hargreaves over hit a cross from the right, Park JS managed to keep the ball in which Roma's keeper had trouble handling it.. the ball dropped to rooney for him to tap in the goal.

Roma tried to bounce back but just couldnt break Man Utd's tight defence. Rio played really well.

Ronny could've added a 2nd goal late in the game but his volley, from a tevez cross, went flying over the bar.

All in all, both teams defended well, but Man Utd defended better. Heh.


Man Utd on a roll.. But news about Vidic's injury yet to be known.

So yeah, good morning guys.

haha... damn sian... i tot the match was at 3.45... so i went over 2 my cousin's house late!!!!
onli started watching at 55mins...

i think the problem with roma was that their strikers weren't as alert as man utds...
n man utds attackers can always pull out to the flank even for rooney,tevez,ronaldo when needed.
I think thats the best point of man utd. Every1 can be a support, n every1 else can be a scorer haha.

N the save by van der sarr deserved to be credited! so i shall say it again.
"Roma almost equalised but Van Der Sar showed why he is numero uno.."

wanna talk about sian?! i just woke up. my laptop clock reads 5.45am now. LOL wtf lah. but it's all good, at least man utd won! GIMME A HELL YEAHHHH!

 

[shredded]

HELL YA
red devils all the way. double!

 

[ruixist]

damn, wanted to wake up for the match, but woke up with a fever instead.

ronaldo and rooney ftw reading the match reports, it sounds like roma gave united a good challenge, but united came out tops anyway. this is definitely a hell of a good run..glory glory all the way!

 

[ShredNoob]

WOOOO! all the way MANU!!

 

[Dime]

wooo roma was really unlucky in the match.i have to admit roma dominated most of the game.

but to wazza's and ronny's brilliance,United came on top.

hope they turn it on at OT and see the biggest 2 leg result in CL history.

 

[jeepers]

roma only really dominated the second half, up till man utd's second goal. with the number of openings man utd created, it could and should have been more goals scored! the worrying thing is ronaldo and evra would miss a match once they get another yellow card. i would've prefer it if they were suspended for the next roma tie rather than against barca in the semis.

 

[zullio]

jeepers= i totally agree.. better for them to miss 2nd leg against roma then a future match against barca/schalke...

roma really missed totti just now.. we've been real lucky the past 12months.. totti never played against ManUtd..

bad news

Nemanja Vidic has been ruled out for two or three weeks with a knee injury.

The Serbian centre-back, who fell awkwardly after an aerial challenge against Roma, came off after just 31 minutes of Tuesday's 2-0 quarter final first-leg win.

He was sent for a scan on Wednesday, the results of which showed the injury not to be serious.

A club spokesperson told ManUtd.com: "There is no major damage to the left knee, and Nemanja will be out for around 2 or 3 weeks."

Vidic will therefore miss the Premier League matches against Middlesbrough and Arsenal and Wednesday's Champions League quarter final second leg clash with Roma.

He could return to face Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park on 19 April, and will certainly hope to be involved should United reach the Champions League semi finals before for the Reds' visit Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea on 26 April.

aiyo..heart pain. hope he recovers well and soon enough!

 

[jeepers]

neh mind, man utd's got competent backup in o'shea and pique, unlike arsenal's senderos and liverpool's skrtel! :twisted: see how comfortable o'shea was when he replaced vidic in central defence?

it's kinda like last season eh. vidic injured, man utd kicked out in UCL semis. OOOPS. :-o

 

[ruixist]

that's not a very good parallel to make eh? haha. somehow i'm really filled with tons of optimism that they can make it to the UCL finals!

haha.. he shud be back by the CL semis..

 

[jeepers]

ruixist: yeah i actually think they can win the double this year! confidence is high! defence's uber tight, goals are aplenty. once rooney starts scoring again, HE WONT STOP.

zullio: yup i know. but an injury's an injury. thank goodness he didnt tear anything. i tore both my acl and meniscus and i havent played in months! the last time i played my knee gave way. ugh. he'll miss the arsenal game though, cant lose that one!

 

[niteblade]

hope he comes back quick
