Sports - Football - Premier League
Match: Newcastle 1:2 Manchester United, not the best match of all time, but I was just surprised about Newcastle. They actually made a contest of it. I thought it was going to be a Man Utd thrash, especially with Newcastle having half their team out due to injury. But the Magpies had many chances and didn't make it easy at all for Man Utd. It was also a surprise to see Van der Sar give the first goal to Lovenkrands with that blunder, but it had to happen sometime. Berbatov was also served with a goal on a silver plate, which eventually proved to be the match-winner. Everything else but convincing but three points nonetheless. Nothing else counts in the title race.
Result: Tottenham 4:0 Middlesbrough, why couldn't Liverpool do this at the weekend?!?!?!?!
Goal: Carlton Cole's finish to a fine passing interaction was a joy to watch.
Player: Robbie Keane just showed not only through scoring but providing crucially, too, how essential he is to the team. I still don't have a clue - or maybe don't want to know - why he couldn't make it at Liverpool. Shame.
Manager: Gianfranco Zola was an exception to the norm, not cursing and lambasting the referee, his inconsistent decisions and the red cards; but in contrast, showing understanding and even compassion. Respect. Some managers should take note of that - although they would most probably just burn it...
