Manchester United Fan In Malaysia

What a disappointed start for this season English Premier League. Draw against Reading 0-0 at home, then, another draw against Portsmouth 1-1 with a total of only a single goal from more than a total of 40 shoots is unbelievable for an attacking squad likes Manutd.

To make it more suffering….. Wayne Rooney got injured for almost 2 months and Ronaldo got red card for headbutt!!!.

This season going to be harder than ever for Manutd to retain the EPL title…. hopefully they can start winning tomorrow…

Manchester United will start their 2007/08 Premier League campaign by end of this week against Reading.

I have no friend to join me watch this match at nearest Mamak stall. Diyana at Langkawi & Nize had problem with his car.

However, around 9pm, Nize call me and he said that he will borrow his friend’s car and going to come to my place to watch the match. The match started at 10pm in Malaysia time. The first 10minutes was so so boring…

Then, after 15minutes the match started…Nize’s friend call and he want his car back…hahahaha.. So, he has no choice..then I continue watch this match at my house…..aloneee….siiggghhhh…

The first Manutd goal by great was so great..and its also the same with Maluoda’s goal. No comment on that!

However, Van der Sar was superb!…I never watch any goalkeeper save all first 3 penalties before.

Final result : Manchester United 1 Chelsea 1 ( Manutd won penalty 3-0 )

Edwin van der Sar was the shoot-out hero as Manchester United clinched a Community Shield triumph over Chelsea at Wembley.

In a match that was only marginally better than the draw FA Cup final in May, England’s top two remained level at full-time after Florent Malouda had levelled Ryan Giggs’ first-half opener.

But then came the real drama during penalty shootout as Van der Sar pulled off three successive saves to deny David Pizarro, Frank Lampard and Shaun Wright-Phillips.
