Tevez and a team effort to the semis
United 5-3 Blackburn Rovers
Carling Cup 5th Round
Tevez v. The Rovers from biffadigital on Vimeo.
If we didn't have tickets we would have stayed in with the radio coverage. A bitter cold night, ice on the side roads surrounding home, traffic chaos in Manchester with two matches on one night. Got a taxi up to Warwick Road with gritted roads, bright lights and crowds sauntering to the stadium. Glad we went.
The match livened up after the first goal, settled down after the second. Tevez showed how he is a class player. Phenomenal work rate, with four goals he deserved to collect the match ball and have it gold plated. Anderson I rated as well with his unselfish play.
At 4-1 you'd have thought the game over. The people in front left, the kids were well over-tired and still twenty minutes to go. Some unfocused defending and it's 4-2, then 4-3. You do not want a late night watching extra time in these temperatures. But up pops Anderson to commit the goalie and pass to Tevez to settle it at 5-3.
Tried some live blogging. Exaggerate it was live score updates from a mobile phone to Twitter and a friend watching the Bitters on the Tv, and uploaded a picture....
Game 54, admission £35, taxi £5.
