FA Community Shield 08 - MU v Portsmouth

So many events over the weekend. First the wonderful Olympic Opening on Friday (08.08.2008 at 8.08pm), then our National Day on Saturday (09.08.2008 at 5.30pm) and FA Community Shield on Sunday (10.08.2008 at 10.00pm).

Manchester United and Portsmouth drew 0-0 after 90 minutes. The game was finally put out of its misery with a penalty shoot-out, with United winning 3-1. Man United dominated parts of the game but were unable to break through. Darren Fletcher miss the best chance before later hitting the crossbar when chipping from long range. Gary Neville lasted around 70 minutes of the match before being replaced by Wes Brown.

Manchester United claimed their first piece of the silverwear of the season when Tevez, Giggs and Carrick all converted their penalties whilst only Jermaine Defore could score for Portsmouth. Diarra, Mvuemba, and Glen Johnson all guilty of missing with some poor penalties, handing the Community Shield yet again to Manchester United.

We are MU fans just like TS and UR. It is the first trophy of the English season, FA Cup winners Portsmouth against Premier League Champions Manchester United for the FA Community Shield. The result is ...... for sure......MU !!!!! Glory Glory Man United!!!
