Portsmouth 1 United 1
From the action I saw on Match of the Day, this was a game United should have won. However, highlights often lie and the key facts I can take from the game are the following.
- Tevez linked up wonderfully with Nani to make the goal.
- Scholes scored a thunderbolt strike. That should in part answer the doubters as to whether he should play.
- The Portsmouth goal was a great header which should have been stopped before the cross. The cross was too good to defend and the header was too good to save (I haven’t see more than one replay of this)
- Rooney has passed on his stupid gene to Ronaldo whilst he out injured. It was so out of character for Ronaldo to react that I’m sure something else must have happened. That said, the “headbutt” was no Zidane, was it? Joe Jordan thought the sending off was harsh, but then he was a Scottish centre forward from the 70s.
In all this leaves us on 2 points from 2 games and a slightly worrying 4 points behind Chelsea.
