Post Match Analysis

What a match, first half was electrifying with Liverpool having majority of the possession initally . But they could'nt break into the ManU defense. Out of nowhere came Wes Brown with a smart move by heading (elbowing) to the goal from Rooney's cross.Pepe Reina (Liv goalie) was pretty ordinary in the field.
Then Mascherno was sent off for showing dissent after picking a 2nd yellow card, first one was due to a sliding tackle on Scholes .Afterwhich there was no looking back for ManU.Ronaldo missed many chances but was still able to net in from a Nani corner who added the 3rd few minutes later with a superb one-two combination with Rooney.
Giggs and Anderson were substituted for Nani and Tevez in the second half.Rooney was unlucky not to have scored one eventhough he had many half chances.
Gerrard was moved to holding midfield after the sending off of Mascherno which decreased the attcking power of Liverpool.Babel was substituted for Benayoun who also couldnt contribute match.Earlier Liverpool were lucky to have escaped a penalty appeal when Carragher trippes Rooney inside the box.
As such ManU were the superior team for vast stretches and the wonderboy Torres couldnt stop another derby defeat at the hands of their rivals ManU.
At the end it was the Red Devils who had the last laugh
Final Score Man U 3 - 0 Liv
Goal Scorers : Wes Brown
Cristiano Ronaldo
Nani
