Man Utd 0 - Everton 0, Rooney isnt everything.

My heart was beating unusually fast in the last 20 minutes of the game. It must have been an least twice if not thrice as fast as the usual heart beat. What a game it was..The Everton side started off the game pretty well, controlling almost the entire first half but come second half, it was to be a hard fought game with Everton players displaying their best ever defensive stance throughout the game even without J.Yobo!! Another absentee in the squad was Tommy 'MadDog' Gravesen who in place was replaced by debutant Tim Cahill who played superbly in this match. Occasionally, the Everton boys almost broke the ManU supporters' heart through a couple of attempts and THREE PENALTY APPEALS!!

1) O'Shea's handling of the ball in the box (okay this call might be a little dodgy)
2) Silvestre's clear HANDLING OF THE BALL AS WELL (THIS IS CLEAR!!!CLEARLY HANDBALL!)
3) Silvestre's push on Big Duncan in the box. (ManU, u lucky scum!)



But nevertheless, ManU did threaten pretty well. In fact, 3 shots was denied by the woodwork.. Fair enuff i would say, if we had got the penalty, you guys might have equalised.

Overall, a fantastic result for Everton and currently stand tall on 7th of the Premiership table. It just goes to show that Everton can get results without Yobo, Gravesen and most notably Rooney.

Sweetest moment of the game: The final whistle.
Most sour moment of the game: When ManU fans chanted, "Rooney Rooney Rooney!!" So disguisted with them!!
