Manchester United Vs Chelsea a decisive clash in the EPL

This EPL race has been a roller coaster race. With Arsenal on top in February, the EPL title race has been turned on its heels as a Man Utd. Vs Chelsea clash is inevitable. This match may just bring Chelsea on top.

This decisive blow was struck this Saturday with vital games for the top four. Arsenal entertained Reading and got better easily as they ousted the Reading team in the 30th minute as Adebayor scored his 27th goal of the season with a clever move, circumventing the defence to coolly put it past Hannhemann and then Gilberto scored through a deflection from a defender as Arsenal won easily 2-0 even though Van Persie nearly scored and Walcott missed an easy goal. This loss may just put Reading into relegation zone if Birmingham win on Sunday.

Liverpool travelled to Craven Cottage with a less strong team, leaving out Torres and Gerrard and Fulham needing a win to move out of relegation. But a Lucas pass saw Pennant smash the ball into the netting, followed by a Crouch kick which saw him score his 4th EPL goal. Fulham was criticised for showing absolutely no interest in trying to stop themselves from losing.

Fulham now face a blow as relegation zoners Bolton Wanderers bested Middlesbrough in a very tight match as they won 1-0. Now the stragglers at the bottom half of the table have to look out and win more games!

But the title race was made more competitive in the match between Manchester United and Blackburn. Blackburn had new English star David Bentley and United had, as you all know, their most ruthless goal scoring team out.

The champions took it easy until they were rudely awakened as Roque Santa Cruz took advantage of slack defending as his kick saw the back of the net. Then United awoke and started playing their free football, but to no avail, United trailing in the half time break.

Fergie kept his team in for a long time, and when the United players came out, we could see the fear in Blackburn’s faces. Still, they defended very well, frustrating the Manchester fans eagerly waiting for a Manchester victory.

United kept on putting pressure in the right places, but it seemed that their only barrier was Friedel, the goalkeeper. US second choice stopped chances on chances as he seemed to fly to stop Rooney, Tevez, Nani and Ronaldo form scoring. He kept out umpteen chances on goal. I can still remember the O’Shea chance stop as he moved his hands in the way at the correct time, or the Tevez stop as he stopped the ball merely a centimetre away from the line!!

But United were not to be denied, as a Scholes header saw Tevez score, thus leading to a draw. But Fergie was worried when English talent Rooney limped off the pitch. United fans should hope their hero is fit for a clash versus Barcelona for the UEFA league! This shows that even the big temas need to toil to win or draw. No tema can be taken for granted. Individuals may be good on their own,but if they do not form a team, they WILL lose. At the same time it shows us why MANU are the champs! Now, the clash between Chelsea and the champs will decide who wins, or loses, with Chelsea on 78 and Manchester on 81!

GO ARSENAL!!!!!!!!
