Derby of the season!

What a night!What a night!The match between the two Manchester club is truly a match to remember.

I was on the way to my friends house to watch the match,an early kick-off at 8:30,while we were side tracked when me and a couple of friends went buying pizza(dominoes) for our friends.We came up late...when the screen was turned on...the score was 1-0...to my delight.

But,sadly,the goal was canceled out by a City equalizer thanks to a mistake by our goalkeeper.The match was filled with ups and downs.Half time came just at the right time as our team looked to be in danger.

Second half started well for us,we played with our normal grace,pushing our opponents to the limit.

A second goal was inevitable as Fletcher nicked in a nice header pass the keeper.Things were looking up for us until a shock equalizer came from a shocking strike from Bellamy.With ten minutes from time...our man of the match and previous goal scorer headed in what we thought was the winning goal.We were cheering with joy and delight...not too fast.

A dreadful mistake from our mostly reliable defender paid the price when city scored what everyone thought was the equalizing goal.We were near to tears...but we were up for another surprise.Our transfer of the season...Michael Owen...come on as a substitute.,hoping to change the course of the game...and oh boy did he did it.

With virtually seconds left...a glorious pass by Giggs found its way to Owen,and with the chance to become a hero for the reds...he scored the winning goal for our team.Our tears turned into tears of joy as we were jumping up and down in delight,screaming our hearts out as the joy was just so ever sweet.

What a night to remember...this is truly what I believe...the derby of the season...maybe even the Century!
