AsSalam and hola everybody,
Dah lama gak tak tulis entri pasal my beloved football club, Man United of course... and as the latest Barclay's Premier League result will attest, Manchester United is showing form of a champion. A Roque Santa Cruz goal sandwiched between Wayne Rooney's toe poke and Cristiano Ronaldo's swerving free kick, the performance wasn't actually the best that United could muster but playing against a very spirited and organised Blackburn Rovers side that has been rejuvenated under Big Sam Allardyce, this was no walk in the park.
On Sunday though, Liverpool yet again slipped at the hands of Manchester City and that means United are gaining a bigger point advantage ahead of the chasing pack...so I guess United are doing really well in the race for a third consecutive Premier League title yuhuuuu!!!! Come Tuesday however, the focus shifts to the UEFA Champions League clash with Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan.
United's Serie A counter part is also the pacesetter so far and has found form once again after a series of poor performances. Judging by recent form, both teams are definitely on a roll, although Man United missed the chance to break the European record for the longest consecutive clean sheets, this will be a match to watch for supporters and neutrals alike, after all... this match will again pit Sir Alex Ferguson against his friend-turned-nemesis-turned-friend again, Jose 'the special one' Mourinho. Now this match has all the ingredients of an explosive match, big name superstars such as Ronaldo, Berbatov, Ferdinand, Rooney, Scholes and Ibrahimovich, Zanetti, Cambiasso, Materazzi making up the opponents' star studded team sheet. It's a matter of great concern though for United fans as the defence will almost lose Johnny Evans to injury as the other missing names from the back are Vidic, Neville and Wes Brown.
The last time Man United met Internazionale in a competitive match it was the year they won the unprecedented Treble in 1999. So maybe, just maybe this could be another prosperous year for the Red Devils who knows right..?! So, as a special tribute to this last 16, first leg tie at the Giuseppe Meazza stadia, I'll be posting a video with a rallying message to the United faithfuls tomorrow! Wait for it guys, and let's bring back the memories of 1999. Ciao and wassalam!
