The drama in football never fail to impress. That's one of the reason my blog is all about football nowadays. It's all about Manchester United so to speak. After a disappointing week for MU in the Champions League, the players were more than determined to grab a win at the derby match against City. And after a lead with Ronaldo's penalty, City was awarded a penalty with a foul by Wes Brown on Dick-off at the 81st minute. In the video replays, it was obvious that the contact was minimal the referee's decision was generous indeed to the city rivals and might strike a cruel blow to MU's run-in to the title. I would understand Chelsea fans delight of that fumble and gave them a chance to catch up if MU failed to win this game. MU fans like me was cursing the referee and fearing the worse. Another winless game would spell a disastrous week for the club. However, it was Chelsea's heart that sank when Van der Saars manage to keep the ball out when Vassell blasted the ball straight at his feet. And the MU corner erupted! The game ended with a win and MU was even more closer to the title. A draw from the next 2 games, or any mistakes from Chelsea, the title fate would be sealed. I hope tonight would be the night after 4 years wait for the title! Let's bring them back to Old Trafford. Next year, i might not be able to cheer the club on as the hostility of Scots towards English clubs would force me to hide my allegiance. So i really hope nothing will go wrong the next fortnight and i had something to celebrate before moving to the land with only Celtics or Rangers to watch, a very dull prospect. However i would not dismiss the Scottish link in MU whom Scotman manager Alex Ferguson is the manager of the century!
