Manchester United v. Aston Villa MINUTE BY MINUTE

[Count Duckula]

fecking bollocks by Ronaldo.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Ronaldo receives the ball in the box from a Neville throw, and passes to the middle where no one is.

Ball back in and Macheda vocally appeals for a penalty after being taken out by a Villa defender - I think he had a reasonable claim there as well to be honest.

 

[Alex]

Macheda had an appeal for a peno turned down a few moments ago, wasnt that clear but it could have been given as he was pushed from behind

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Giggs wins a corner after a long ball. Evans meets it but the ball goes over.

 

[Alex]

Giggs wins a corner

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Macheda had an appeal for a peno turned down a few moments ago, wasnt that clear but it could have been given as he was pushed from behind

The defender seemed to have an arm over his shoulder that he was using the force Kiko downwards.

 

[Alex]

Headed over the bar by Evans, who should have done better

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Macheda with a good run down the left, cuts inside and tees up a cross across the face of goal. The ball falls to Giggs but he repeates Ronaldo's move from a moment earlier and tries to pass inside as opposed to shooting.

 

[Alex]

United are finally turning up the heat

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Let me first say how much I love Tevez and that I don't want a wrong word said against him, but his touch today has been atrocious.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Tevez bundled over near the Villa box, they break and go down the other end where O Shea batters Agbonlahor from behind and they have a free near the byline to the right of our goal.

Young takes and Van Der Sar makes a hash of the clearance, but eventualyl we win a free to get it out.

 

[Alex]

Agbonglahor fouled by O'Shea

Tevez should have been given one seconds earlier

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Friedel fouled after a United corner by running into a stationary Tevez...

 

[Alex]

James Milner off for Reo-Coker

 

[Alex]

Friedel fouled by Tevez as the ball bounced around in the air following the corner, not much was in it

 

[SharkyMcShark]

UNited throwing men forwards now.

Giggs back on the left.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Corner United after some good work by Evra, O Shea heads goalwards from some way out and Friedel clutches easily at it.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

We're playing 4 2 4 now.

Yellow for Ashley Young for dissent.

 

[Alex]

Corner won by Evra

Headed goal wards by O'Shea but easily saved by Friedel

 

[SharkyMcShark]

RONALDO GOAL!

Ronaldo has a crack from outside the area and it creeps inside Friedel's far post!

Game on!

Manchester United 2 - 2 Aston Villa

 

[Alex]

feck yeah RONALDO!!!

He had been fouled and thought about staying down, but got up. Come on United!!!!

 

[SharkyMcShark]

The crowd in good voice. We have 9 minutes + stoppages to get a winner.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Fletcher with the narrowest of misses!

He took it on the half volley and Friedel got a touch to prevent it going into the roof!

The subsequent corner comes to nothing.

 

[Alex]

Fletcher nearly with the winner, just over the ball after a nice feed by Macheda

 

[SharkyMcShark]

It's end to end stuff and I'm fecking bricking it - both United and Villa just had chances ruined by poor final balls.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Welbeck looking like he's about to come on.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Ronaldo blasts over from the edge of the area after fantastic chasing work from Darren Fletcher.

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Tevez off for Welbeck.

Not his best game but then he didn't have much to work with.

 

[Alex]

Ronaldo fizzes it over the bar, after a great play by Fletcher to win the ball back

Welbeck coming on

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Welbeck thwarted by Friedel!

Shades of West Ham in 1995 here!

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Carrick puts the ball in and Evans fail to control it.... the amount of added time is FIVE minutes.

 

[Alex]

Nearly by Welbeck

Corner to United

 

[SharkyMcShark]

United win another corner

 

[SharkyMcShark]

COmes to nothing and Villa break, we win the ball back in the middle

 

[Alex]

Corner won by Evra

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Macheda Has Won It!

 

[SharkyMcShark]

Macheda controls on the edge of the box, swivels, and puts it into the corner of the net!!!!!!!!!


MANCHESTER UNITED 3 - 2 ASTON VILLA!!!

 

[Alex]

Macheda wonder goal, you fecking know it

feck YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[SharkyMcShark]

I'm so sorry for arguing all day with legend16 that you wouldn't play Macheda!

BIG BIG GOAL HERE!

 

[Alex]

Macheda was carded for his celebration in which he went to celebrate with his friends and family
