Odds on that one of the defenders goes in on him in the first five mins.

You get some bad decisions you get some that go your way, but...you cant deny that when playing at old trafford there is some unknown force that sends decisions their way. wasnt it last season a penalty was awarded at old trafford against the rags for the first time in two years or something silly?
forgot to mention rio bringing Lunjberg down when he was the last man, anywhere else that would have been a booking, but he would have had to send rio off...so not even a foul?! Rudd dodgy dodgy tackle missed by the Lino who was standing infront of both of them?
Anyway, its done, roll on Southampton.

Re: British Football thread
what about when C. Ronaldo was taken down in the box?
you can't have it both ways.
You got beat 2-0, c'est la vie. It was bound to happen sooner or later

Celtic 2 -Aberdeen 3
We were up 2-0 after 6 minutes, we let them equalise and then applied the coup de grace in the 94th minute. That's got to hurt!

Great win for the Dons.......we managed to sneak a nice 1-0 at Motherwell too. A good night all round!
