The first leg of the second semi final between Manchester United and Arsenal , was held at Old Tra fford.. It was also the 800 th game for Ryan Giggs in his long and ilastrious career.
As usual Arsenal are a nervous lot for the first twenty or twentyfive minutes, and this time it was not diffrent. They failed to clear their lines , first it was Silvestre , whose pass took a defection from Alexander Songs leg, and it fell gently for John O Shea to score the goal in the 18th minute of the match . At first it was thought more goals would be scored by Manchester United, who had a total of 14 dhots on the goal, to Arsenals 4 shots on the goal.
Ronaldo saw his long thunderous kick hit the bar and bounce over harmlessly, and he was getting frustrated as he could not score, he then started his usual diving and claiming free kicks, when the referee just did not bother he started throwing tantarums on the pitch and shaking his hand in anger , in front of his Manchester fans. Just a spoilt brat.
Giggs saw his goal ruled out for an offside. The person who saw to it that Manchester United have a single goal lead , to take to the Emirates stadium was Manuel Alumenia, who made four good saves. Ferdinand had a rib injury, onereport say he coughed up blood.. AS the second leg will be played at Emirates stadium, let me remind you all that neither Chelsea, Liverpool or Manchester have won a game there, only small clubs have won, Hull Fulham and West Ham. have won.there..
