Friendly Matches

So it turned out that Man Utd were actually playing Glentoran and Dumfermline as their final preparation for the upcoming season. To be honest I have never heard of Glentoran, it must be a City on planet Mars. Leaving my geographical knowledge aside, and talking about the subject of this blog, Man Utd got past these last two hurdles untroubled. Against Glentoran, United won 3-0, with the goals coming from Campbell, Evra & Nani. I heard that Nani's goal was a beauty and his performance justified his price tag. I didn't get to watch this match but I'll try and watch the goals and highlights later on youtube.com.

In the second match which was played at the same time as the previously mentioned game, United won against Dumfermline 4-0. The goals coming from Eagles, Giggs and a double from Rooney. I got to watch 20 minutes of this match as I had other priorities. United seemed to be playing good attacking football. Hargreaves managed to play for like an hour, while the surprise of the night was the inclusion of Paul Scholes days after his surgery. He played the whole match, which is a big boost for the United squad ahead of the new season. I should point out that I really like this Eagles guy, a beautiful curved goal against Everton and a cracker against one of the asian teams in the tour have really won me over. Hope he continues to progress. Sadly, Tevez didn't play in any of these games, it seems that a new problem regarding his transfer has just popped up. We'll have to wait more until he signs for United, but who cares about waiting for a few days, after all we've been patiently waiting for two months, another few days would do no difference, at least to me. Altough it does to Ferguson, who planned to have Tevez available for next Sunday.

Anywayz it's 12:35am right now so I better get some sleep because tomorrow I have a pile of Mathematics waiting to be done. I'll blog again after the Reading game, well I hope that we win our first match of many, so that we bag another premiership title. Come On You Reds!!

Over and Out.
