"And now Ronaldo... he's drawn three men in—Butt, Keane, and even Neville's coming across. He doesn't go for goal... he rolls it—Pirlo! He's in space, sets himself... strikes it! It curls away from Schmeichel, kisses the post, and nestles in the corner! Ronaldo with the guile, Pirlo with the finish—and Manchester City are two up here at Old Trafford!"
With just twelve minutes gone, Manchester City led 2–0 against the mighty Manchester United!
Whether you ask City fans or Manchester United supporters, no one could have predicted such a shocking start to the match.
The ball shifts back and forth across the field like a constantly swaying pendulum, with United holding the majority of possession—effectively utilizing their depth and experienced midfield presence.
