So Manchester United Lose....who cares????!!

So it was the coveted Manchester United V/s Chelsea FA Cup Finale ....lots of anticipations to see a thriller…well you may call it a complete rip-off!!

Well the match started with both the teams doing what is called “Mid-field Battle” …which was to some extent annoyingly boring!!! Although I felt that Chelsea was a better team in the first half creating better chances and I must say that Jose Mourinho was bang on target with his strategy which entailed a well organized defense complemented by a disciplined mid-field. So as expected it was 0-0 at half-time!

In first 10 minutes of second half, Chelsea was a better team with a fluency that was really a silver lining in such a stale game!! But after an hour mark Manchester United came back pretty well due to some changes in their strategy and by bringing Alan Smith on! Some really fantastic chances (which I call “sitters”) were missed by Giggs and Rooney!!! They should have scored those precious chances on their way but there was something else which was scripted!!

Match goes in to the extra- time with the score stuck at 0-0! The extra-time started with the same intensity which underlined the whole match with lack of brilliant play on part of both the teams…and it looked like that Peter chezk and Van der sar are all set to decide the destiny of this tie. Then suddenly in 26^th minute of the extra-time, a one touch play between Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard leads the way for Chelsea becoming the 2007 FA cup Champions…and I sighed with relief as the great torture was over…a complete rip- off!!
