Anyone?



What a moment, what a feeling, YESSSSSSSSSS !!! United win and Chelsea draw, go and pack your bags, Chelsea, WOOO HOOO !!!

Oops, I forgot to say the reason. Just a few moments ago, Manchester United and Chelsea kicked off their matches at the same time, and United came out ... ... VICTORIOUS !!! and Chelsea could only manage a draw, lousy! What's better, is that United came from two goals down to win their match, that is against Everton away. (They won 4-2).

All right, tonight my mood's very good, so I'll make this short and simple. First, United trailed 1-0 when defender Patrice Evra gave away a needless free-kick in the 12th minute. From the resulting free kick, home defender Alan Stubbs unleashed a low drive that took a deflection off United midfielder Michael Carrick and into the net. In the first half, there were no other goals but some decent chances.

Five minutes into the second half, United trail 2-0 no thanks to a stunning strike by on-loan midfielder Manuel Fernandes. Everton 2, Manchester United 0. But did United care, no they did not! After the hour mark, they pulled one back through John O'Shea after a fluke by Everton's goalie from a Ryan Giggs corner. 7 minutes after, another corner, and United are level, this time its not a goal, but an ... ... own goal by none other than, former United favourite, Phil Neville! Thanks Neville. Then in the last few 10 minutes or so, United scored two, former Everton boy Wayne Rooney and substitute Chris Eagles, his first appearance and goal in the Premeirleague.

Then ... ... full time whistle!!! United players rejoiced and the manager joins them. The fans cheer and so did I. A pity for Chelsea but not that they deserved to win their match against Bolton, right? The only low point is that I didn't watch the match, sob sob. But never mind! United won and that's it Three games to go and Manchester United are five points clear of Chelsea, now there's really talk of a treble! So ... ... anyone ?
