United fail to win against Bolton as we losing 3 vital points at Reebok Stadium.
Well an unexpected result and but no the impossible one.Bolton cracking the United wall is the result of under-estimating your opponents.Bolton’s new coach Gary Megson still is unbeaten since the first day in charge and will look to add few more to his unbeaten tally.
However, in my previous posts and many places around i talked about Anelka.How fatal and dangerous he can be at times.With such skills and pace we have to expect something from him.But too bad United left him out of their reach.An early goal coming from …….who else Anelka!! He opened the account for Bolton on first 12 minutes guiding the ball in the net from Campo freekick.
Since then it looked as if United were struggling.Mistime tackles and lose balls were all the highlights for United.Bolton stayed on their part of strategy by getting stronger with defense and making less progress at forward.First half was all about United’s mistake and tackles.No spectacular moments for then the sides as first half progressed with Bolton leading United.
Second half started with United players filled in rage to get the equalizer and get hold of the game.United started out with few attacks but Jaaskelainen kept his nerves and pushed United back from scoring.It now looked that international matches played their part for keeping Bolton on high. Tevez was looking exhausted and tired throughout the game. .He was falling behind Saha in pace and this problem lead very if chances for Saha to score and strike the ball.The only part which i enjoyed was Hargreaves’s free kick..Hargreaves can now be United’s front man for striking free kicks . The game did have much Drama as Ferguson was sent to stands for arguing with ref and it looked more obvious when you are seeing such poor performance from referee in such crucial games.On one of the occasion Davies was about to get booked for a mistime tackle on Saha but referee ruled out by giving just a foul.Davies was already booked for a card and his second booking could have made Bolton pay.The game ended with a defeat as United kept on trying till last minute.Hargreaves and Anderson are the only improvements in United’s side from tomorrow’s game.
And to add more fuel to the fire.Arsenal managed winning over Wigan by 3 goals which takes 6 points ahead of us with one game in hand.Too bad.
