Nani and Wayne Rooney, U guys just stole the show...Pure Unadulterated Brilliance

The much awaited game between Manchester United and Manchester City at the Theatre of Dreams ulitmately lived up to it's expectations(United showing City the door) when Nani gave the hosts the lead when he slotted past Joe Hart after showing excellent composure when being put through on goal, only for David Silva to unwittingly equalise when Edin Dzeko’s shot went in off the Spaniard.Wayne Rooney's goal demonstrated pure brilliance when he did an acrobatic bi - cycle kick and nailed the match winner,this was no ordinary goal, it will be remembered for decades to come and will be much spoken off in United's Folklore.




Nani definetly was the most animated player on the pitch when he picked the ball up in his own half after Rooney was clattered, waltzed past three City defenders with some smart step-overs and fizzed a left footed shot just wide of the uprightCity searched in vain for another equaliser but it proved not to be their day as United held out to seal a famous and title-defining victory.




Ryan Giggs,had his moments, after displaying some delightful moves, there were times when the ball just never found it's target.Giggs and Scholes were very instrumental throughtout the match, these two legends have redefined the Age vs. Performance paradigm.Paul Scholes contribution in the beginning of the season when United were still finding their way cannot be taken lighlty.Carlos Tevez said he didnt care of the response he would recieve at Old Trafford and he tried to be the man , but Captain vs Captain was a little too much for him.Nemanja Vidic put in another brilliant performance at the heart of United's defence.When i see him on the pitch , i can breathe a sigh of peace.WE DEFINETLY MISSED RIO FERDINAND who is being rested after picking up a calf injury as United have some really BIG GAMES coming their way.United starlet Chris Smalling did just justice by taking his place,tough he lacked experience he didnt show fear , he was right there in the middle of the action and defended against the likes of Yaya Toure , Carlos Tevez and Edin Dzeko.
You see, that's the thing about being a United fan, it brings out the roaring lion inside u and it renders u fearless.

Yesterday's match was definetly not worth missing at any cost,with City out of the way and a Double against Chelsea on the way, United cannot afford to lose any of the big ones as Arsenal have finally been able to keep up with pressure after god knows how many years.Bring it on People, the heart of OLD TRAFFORD does not fear anyone
