Mid-week review 13th May

MANCHESTER UNITED:

Manchester United travelled to JJB stadium this Wednesday.
A win will make their way easy to win the championship. Although former United player Steve Bruce don't have such a good record against his former boss Sir Alex Ferguson , having won just two points in their last 11 meetings , he will hope to push United to a draw.
Just after the kick-off Valencia's pace broke the United defence very easily. But he couldn't come up with a good finish.
Mins later Berbatov with the help of Ronaldo , gave a accurate pass to Rooney, which he headed it wide.
Later Carrick also missed a chance by chipping the ball over the bar.Van der Sar saved one dangerous looking free-kick from N'Zogbia.
In the 28th min United defence looked vulnerable for the second time in the first half . A long pass dropped down beautifully for Rodallega who found the net to give the home team 1-0 lead over the champions. Vidic was appealing for the foul on him but couldn't get referee on his side.

In the second half United's defence was more composed than in the first .
Tevez who came in as a substitute in the 58 th min , made his impact just after 3 mins. In the 61st min Carrick pass was luckily spotted Tevez , who finished it off with his heel with a back flick. He made one of the toughest finish look very easy.

In the second half Wigan didn't really have any chances.
Late in the second half Ronaldo gave pass to unmarked O'Shea. O'Shea gave pass to Carrick who struck an 87th-minute winner to sink Wigan 2-1 and move Manchester United to within a solitary point of retaining their Premier League title.


Final score was Wigan 1-2 Manchester United.....
