Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool----My opinions

Yeah! Another win for Manchester United! In this post, I will be sharing my opinions on this match.

I would consider Manchester United to be lucky. A penalty was awarded to the team in the first half. Liverpool's Masherano sort of pulled Valencia's shirt and he fell just at the border of the penalty box. The goalkeeper saved Rooney's penalty but he scored with the rebound. I think Masherano should not have made that foul. It is not worth it. Given the goalkeeper's ability, he saved a penalty and he should be able to save that shot by Valencia too. If Masherano did not make that foul, and let Valencia shoot, and Pepe Reina saved that shot, there could have been another miracle like last year's 4-1 thrashing.

The goal from the penalty equalized the score, demoralizing Liverpool. This led to another goal by Park Ji Seung. He headed the ball into the net in the second half. Before that, he made an attempt with his head too. I think the decision to put him as a forward is good as he has the determination to score goals. Furthermore, he has been the winger the last time, and did a lot of crossing and passing. Putting him as a striker can train his dribbling, shooting and heading, which will definitely be useful for the club in future. Berbatov can score goals, mostly with his foot and are closed range. Liverpool is a tough opponent, therefore, Park would be a better candidate for the forward position.

This win brought Manchester United to the top of the table, maintaining the high chances of winning the title for the fourth consecutive year. I am quite confident that Manchester United will end this season with a first or second place. Chelsea is the toughest opponent of all, but with Rooney's ability now, I believe Manchester United can maintain their position throughout.

All the way, Manchester United!
