heart attacks & the like (we are not giving up this title)

(a football game of epic proportions) especially after losing 2 in a row in the league. (at home to Aston Villa) & it's so nice to be able to finally update that score on the very side of this page. (oh my, oh my!)

proper heart attack football situation this after in old Manc town - Injuries, suspensions, etc., etc. coming into the game - a depleted United takes the field & then,..United go up with a stunning free kick by Cristiano Ronaldo ( who more than carried his weight today- finally)

Villa levels it before the half, 1-1. they go up proper 2-1 style thanks to some lackluster defending - our 2 world class center backs were out - United were 6's & 7's at the back. shocking! time, time, time trickles,..then WAM! Ronaldo again in the 80-something min - Level - United with wind in sails attacking - attacking (fergie subs never heard of before 17 yr old italian kid federico macheda)

ref adds 5 mins of stoppage & then the glorious & never forgetful 93rd minute & something beyond very special happens that 90,000+ @old trafford & millions around the globe will never forget,.....said 17 yrold nets brilliant bending winner & instantly enter annals of time/history/space/hero-dom,..lad has heart attack, dies, gets revived & lives to tell story about glorious happenings

we will not give this title up - United back into lead after dramatic display - oh sweet sunshine. (bring on champions league tuesday)
