^Rooney smashes United’s 7th past Hart^

Man Utd came into this came reeling from a 4-3 defeat by Stoke in the FA Cup and were looking for a win to gain some confidence. Sir Alex Ferguson chose Rafael over Gary Neville because Brazilians have a knack of keeping other Brazilians quiet during matches.

Berbatov gave Man United the lead with only 9’ minutes gone when Ferdinand brought the ball forward before laying it right into Berbatov’s path who easily slotted it into the far corner. He extended United’s lead in the 23rd minute. With Richards and Dunne on his back it looked like Berbatov could go any where but he quickly turned and beat both defenders before smashing the ball into the top corner.

He completed his hat-trick in the 28th minute. Ronaldo crossed the ball into the box and Rooney flicked it to the back post and Berbatov nodded it into the net.

Rooney got a controversial goal in the 37th minute when Rooney blocked Joe Hart’s dropkick and just tapped the ball into an empty net. Berbatov added another just before half-time with a header to and Ronaldo scored another one just on the stroke of half-time when he slid the ball under Hart. Man United went into half-time with a 6-0 lead.

Johnson managed to pull one back for City from a corner. He headed it right into the top corner of the net and soon after Jo scored another consolation goal when he got onto the end of a long ball and volleyed it past Van Der Sar

Rooney then restored United’s 5 goal lead in the 72nd minute when he got one-on-one with the goalkeeper and smashed it past him. The game ended 7-2 to United.
