Derby vs Man Utd (FA Cup)

Stadium : Derby home
Date : 15Feb 2009

Score
Manchester United 4
Nani
Gibson
Ronaldo
Welbeck

Derby 1
Adnilson

This was an easy game for the Devils. And they looked easy. Ferguson took it easily. Everyone was happy.

The line-up was far from first 11 squad. Foster, Evans, Gibson started. Formation at the beginning was 4-6-0. Haha. No real striker started.

There were few dubious off-side awarded, but it did not affect United's game after all.

Rating

Ben Foster
He did fine. Few saves. The 1 goal was real goal, not his mistake. Did not look confident, but OK.

Rafael
He's back and looked very lively. This boy is magnificient.

Ferdinand
He's back too, but combination with Evans looked awkward. Sometimes they are at the same spot.

Evans
He's good as usual. Need to work with Ferdinand's style more.

Evra
Another come back from injury. He's not fit yet. But he's fine, played well.

Park Ji-Sung
Unlucky did not score. Played on the right wing, he's just average.

Fletcher
He did good.

Gibson
Got his favorite position and looked comfortable. As a young player, he did very good job this time. And he deserved the goal. And he would have scored more too.

Nani
He played well on the left. The goal was a real poacher. GOOD!!

Giggs
Not really suitable as striker. Spotted more in the middle. Other than that he played well.

Ronaldo
FIFA Best Player? He lost all the balls he had in the first 15 minutes. After that he was fine. He took this game too lightly I guess, that's the reason. His goal was pro!!!

Welbeck(sub Park)
The Finisher. That his title. He came in and changed the positioning. Gigss or ROnaldo moved to the side. Welbeck as main striker. Good game. Brilliant goal!!

O Shea (sub Evra)
Good decision by Fergie, Evra need to rest. But O Shea destroyed the game. Conceding the goal. But after that he recovered well.

Possebon(sub Ronaldo)
He did OK. Average. Not ready for big match yet.

After all, it was an easy game for United. And the impossible dream is still possible. Quadraple they are going.
