So we finally get it.May be the first game wasn’t the perfect one to start off.Narrow chase but we finally made it.The game proved how strong we can get in most delicate situations.Hardly with our full team strength we pulled out results against team who was recently trashed for heavy goals and was full of rage.
Taking Portsmouth at home isn’t most delicious games for any team which we known in past.But still we did pretty well.Even missing genuine wingers Evra and Fletcher did the most with flanks.Fletcher apart from providing the sole goal turned out to be hero second time for us.His role and presence his working out well for United.
With Evra,he reduced our loss of natural winger.Anderson’s return was of his caliber.After missing his first game he did get hold of his boots pretty quick.He worked well with Scholes tieing every attack we made.Especially one that he passed through to Rooney in last minutes of half.
With Rooney,he was pushing himself on every occasion .Though he didn’t score his efforts were remarkable.He needs more time to break his dead-lock.Tevez return was remarkable.He has proved his presence long time but now he has shown why we need him in all game.
The defense was flawless.Brown still replacing Neville and Ferdinand wearing the band instead of Giggs.Possebon made his appearance of game and hardly highlighting his inexperience.O’Shea backing defense pretty well and Evra running furious on wings.
A fitting win to kick off the chase with Blues n’ Scousers.Our next match will be on Friday against Zenit FC for our world championship.Hopefully Nani will be back and so will be Hargo.Park and Carrick are expected to return so everything on bright side for us ..
