Apologies for the lack of game commentary, was pretty much living each second! Vermaelen got sent off in the 27th for an elbow. Evra got booked twice in the space of 2 minutes so the advantage that Man Utd had was thrown away. Rooney opened the scoring in the second half (48m), my heart dropped. I thought it could have been the beginning of the end. But the boys didn't back down. First Fellaini latched onto a loose ball in the box and scored in the 51st, followed by a very tired Olivier Giroud in the 56th minute. It stayed 2-1. I danced.
This win brings me within 5 points of Man Utd, as we are already in the second half of the season. Newcastle, despite their 2 game advantage, are 10 points behind me.
