Man Utd Vs Liverpool: Live From The Old Trafford


Robin van Persie looks to fire a shot through Liverpool's ranks - this one fails ...
 
http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/...ive?intcmp=239#b-50f2d160b579240893bf4de7 90 min: This is so wasteful from Sturridge. He's picked out from a quick free-kick and gets in behind Ferdinand. However he has little support and is forced away from goal but instead of holding the ball up he shoots into the side-netting. He was never scoring from there. There will be four minutes of added time.
 
90 min+2: Another let-off for United. A looping cross from the left finds Suarez unmarked in the middle. He doesn't realise how much time he has or that Borini is behind him and his rushed header goes straight at De Gea.
 

... but in the 19th minute he finds the net from close range with a sweeping finish to put United 1-0 up
 

Martin Skrtel and Pepe Reina prevent Van Persie from grabbing a second just before the break. Skrtel initially clear's the Dutchman's backheeled effort off the line, then Reina bravely plunges onto the loose ball and gets a hefty knock in the face

Roberto Mancini's side play Arsenal later this afternoon but this could yet be seen as a decisive afternoon in the title race. For an hour United were on top but didn't make the most of their chances and almost paid for it after Daniel Sturridge's goal. In the end, though, United probably deserved the win but Brendan Rodgers will take encouragement from the way his side fought back. It does feel a bit of a damning indictment of the league's quality that United could run away with it but that's what spending £24m on Robin van Persie does for you. Thanks for reading. Bye.
 

Huyu naye mpuuzi tu. Shoot yake ingeweza pia deflected na kuingia golini
