5 in the bag

Just came back from watching Manchester United's away game versus Wigan Athletic in JJB Stadium. First half of the match was a dull one, full of frustrations as Manchester United wasted dozens of chances to lead in front of the goal mouth. Wigan's goalie, Chris Kirkland and his teams of defenders were the culprits to deny the Red Devils from scoring. The match ended by half time with a bored stalemate ...


My personal favourite goal of the night - Michael Owen's


Sir Alex Ferguson must be injecting dose of motivation and words of wisdom inside the dressing room during the interval, and scenerio had changed tremendously after that. Minutes after the kick off, Wayne Rooney headed in into the top left corner after feeding a cross from former Wigan's boy, Antonia Valencia. Huge relief for both players and fans; 1-0 prooved to be priceless after the disappointment defeat by Burnley in the midweek. Two minutes later, Dmitar Berbatov strolled in another goal to ease off the pressure, marking his first goal of the season. Rooney was once again the hero when he shot low to give Manchester United a comfortable lead, 3 goals to nil. Rooney was taken out and replaced with Michael Owen; he was greeted with thousands of standing ovations as he left the field. Super-sub, Owen chipped in past Chris Kirkland to make it 4-0. Finally, Nani wrapped up the three points with a sensational Ronaldo's free kick outside the penalty box to earn Manchester United a well deserved truimph with 5 goals to nil ... Woah, I am totally excited right now! Haha :)

Heading to bed soon,
