Red Devils Once Again Champions of EPL

Manchester United are once again champions of EPL, it was achieved the hard way, with a nail-biting goalless draw against Arsenal at Old Trafford.

 

United fought off nearest challengers Liverpool to clinch it on the penultimate weekend following a 0- 0 draw at home to Arsenal on 16^th May 2009.

 Arsenal were retaining possession with more authority than their hosts, and Sir Alex Ferguson responded by throwing Ji-sung Park into the fray, at the expense of Tevez. The Park soon had the ball in the Arsenal net, bursting through and swapping passes with C.Ronaldo before tapping in, only for the goal to be ruled offside.  Arsenal came even closer with six minutes remaining. Another fine long pass ball reaching Fabregas, and the shot took the merest of punch from Van der Sar’s fingertips before rattling against the outside of the post.          

   
United were simply running down the clock. The final whistle once again, success had been reached. It was the Red Devils’ 18^th championship overall and the achievement draws them level with Liverpool.

Manchester United Top Agian?

The first goal came at the half hour mark  from a Cristiano Ronaldo Free Kick . It was a  28meter screamer.  Slightly left of centre, Ronaldo struck the ball sweetly and it flew goalwards, nicking  De Jong on the end of the wall before bouncing once and nestling in the back of Given’s net.

Second goal from Carlos Tevez almost added a second just after the half-hour with a brilliant effort that cannoned off the frame of the goal from the corner of the penalty area. But it was Tevez who provided the final goal to round off a superb move on the stroke of half-time and sent Manchester Unt. up  2-0. Darren Fletcher passe a long ball forward, which Berbatov get ball with the amazing turn around skill. The Berbatov rolled the ball across the edge of the box to Tevez, who took two touches before rifling into the net off the inside of Given’s left-hand post.

Hour later, Sir Alex withdrew Ji-sung Park and Cristiano Ronaldo, who despite scoring the Man U. opener had struggled to assert himself on the game. Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney entered, with Rooney taking Park’s place on the right and Giggs shifting onto the opposite wing to make way for Scholes in the centre.

Manchester United now need just 4 points from three games to win a third successive league title after the Reds brushed aside Mark Hughes’ men in the Manchester derby on Sunday.

Manchester United vs. Arsenal

John O’Shea’s first-half goal gave Sir Alex Ferguson the result he had asked for as Manchester United beat Arsenal FC 1-0 in the opening leg of their UEFA Champions League semi-final.  Before the game Sir Alex said “I just want win by 1- 0 then we will be happy.”   The hosts urgent start earned its reward just after the quarter-hour. Almunia(GK from Arsenal)  had denied Tévez at close range with a superb one-handed save when the Argentinian appeared certain to convert O’Shea’s low centre. But the goalkeeper’s good work went to waste from Anderson’s perfect corner. Although overhit, Michael Carrick drove the ball back in and it bounce off United old boy Mikaël Silvestre to O’Shea who crashed a first-time effort past Almunia.

South Korean midfielder Park Ji-sung scored the opening goal to make Manchester United to a 3-1 victory over Arsenal in the European Champions League semifinal match Tuesday.  The win sends Manchester united to the final in Rome on May 27, where it will face Barcelona or Chelsea.

Park scored in the eighth minute following a slip by defender Kieran Gibbs, who tried to intercept Ronaldo’s cross, according to The Associated Press. Ronaldo made it 2-0 three minutes later with a swerving 35-yard free kick that beat goalkeeper Manuel Almunia.

The goal was Park’s first in the Champions League for Manchester United. It was also his fourth goal this season and 12th since he became a member of Manchester United.

Ronaldo scored his second goal on a 61st-minute counterattack. He backheeled the clearance to Park, who sent the ball to Wayne Rooney, who then crossed to the FIFA player of the year.

Robin van Persie converted a penalty kick for Arsenal in the 76th minute after Darren Fletcher was ejected from pulling down Cesc Fabregas in the penalty area.

Chelsea, which lost last year’s final to Manchester United on penalty kicks, hosts Barcelona Wednesday night following a 0-0 tie last week in the first leg in Spain. Manchester United is trying to become the first team to win consecutive titles since AC Milan in 1989 and 1990.
