^Ronaldo takes on the Chelsea Defence^Man United brought back the whole first team for this match against Chelsea. The only exception is Ferguson chose youth over experience and chose Nani ahead of Giggs because of his goal against Wigan last week.
Man United came into this game expecting a tight game but they didn’t get that. Chelsea did come close in the first few minutes when Essien tried a chip from 30 yards but it landed on top of the net. Scholes came close for Man United he dribbled his way into the box but his shot was deflected onto the bar by Cech.
Man United did take the lead in the 28th minute when Ronaldo played a through ball down the wing to Berbatov he took a shot across the keeper and it found its way into the bottom corner.
Berbatov nearly had another a few minutes later when he took a first time shot which hit the top of the bar. Man United went into the break 1-0 up. Cech was the only reason that it wasn’t 3 or 4.
Man United extended their lead in the 66th minute when Nani was chopped down in the box by Essien it was clearly a penalty. Ronaldo stepped up and sent Cech the wrong way.
Berbatov got his second of the match in the 88th minute when Berbatov got the better of Terry in a race and then placed the ball into the top corner out of the reach of a rushing Cech.
Man United were extremely comfortable they had 17 shots 12 of which were on target. While Chelsea had 1 shot and none of them were on target. Can Man United bring this form into the match against Liverpool?....
