Manchester United vs Otelul Galati 18th September 2011

 

Finally, United have made it. They secured 3 precious points yesterday against a less vulnerable opponent from Romania, Otelul Galati. It was rather interesting to see the number of United fans almost outnumbering the home Galati fans. Though it wasn’t a must win match for United, they played with almost full strength with Vidic returning from injury. It was an unpleasant return for him as he was given red card in the second half. I must admit that, though they were playing with a better 11 than against the weekend match against Liverpool, it wasn’t a classic from United. They struggled a lot in the first half and their second half was slightly better. Rooney’s two goals from the penalty spot earned them the points and the job was done. It wasn’t a comfortable win and United won’t mind that!!
