Manchester United vs. Arsenal

Oh what a splendid match! Today's game was a must win for both United and Arsenal - but in the face of a worthy opponent, United won the day. After the first half, the score was 0-0 and tension prevailed throughout the world of United fans.

The ref, Graham Poll was an Arsenal player in disguise, and faled ot see the Arsenal handball - no red card no penalty.

But United are champions in spirit and at the 54th minute, Silvestre took control of the ball from the far left and shot it straight to Rooney's foot - and Rooney's instict was to score the first goal. Elation. At the 76th minute, the hard working, dedicated servant of United, Ji-Sung Park scored with an assist from the formidable Rooney.

Man of the Match was Rooney - desrvering - but Silvestre was no less Man of the Match for it was his crucial pass that defined the game.
