The first was off a corner kick where Giggs sent the ball in to the far post, several ManU players appeared to try to head it but the ball carried to Rooney, who stuck out his foot and blasted it mid-air into the net with Riena not having a chance. The second goal was a beaut when Valencia stole the ball and played in a perfect ball into space to the charging Rooney, who put the ball through the 5-hole of Riena. <br /><br />When I was watching the Red Devils passing in the match, I equated it to when I was playing basketball and we would run the weave. They just crisply passed the ball around, and then suddenly charged the goal. The score would've been a lot worse if it wasn't for Liverpool's defender Jose Enrique or the misses of Danny Welbeck and Darren Scholes.<br /><br />I was disappointed in Liverpool's play of Steven Gerrard and Craig Bellamy (a late sub). Gerrard played too deep and wasn't able to be the play maker feeding his teammates. Bellamy came on late in the 2nd half and wasn't his usual spark plug.<br /><br />The Suarez, Evra, and Ferdinand row -- ugly, ugly, ugly. I hope FIFA comes down and suspends Suarez for another 8 games so he can get it through his head that what he did was wrong for sport; but they won't because, technically, nothing was done during this match.tpubguhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10964769408442545456noreply@blogger.com
