The two teams battle it out and eventually the fatal error of Diaby (own goal) gives Manchester United the lead 2-1.

I understand what you are saying and I now see the Wayne Rooney penalty in a different way, but Manchester Unnited was able to put Arsenal in defensive positions, and when this happened Arsenal didn't cover as well as they could have.
ReplyDeleteBut thats my opinion and I didn't see the entire game, and the parts I watched were on a sketchy Ustream channel.
