Football - plenty to laugh about !

Sensational
Speechless

Words to describe the games that just passed.
Two of them.
Leaving a smile on my face... Regardless.

In my own words...



Bolton 0 - 1 Manchester United
For me, being the Red Devils' ardent supporter, you can never know how I feel.
Shots after shots by United players only found the hands of Bolton's stronghold gurdian, Jaaskelainen. Overwhelming frustration all around, I could only hope for the best.
89 minutes passed.
Berbatov scored a header !!!
Just like the United fans at the Reebok, I stood up with my fists clenched tight in the air.
Emotions running through my body.
Manchester United are at the top of the league table. One point ahead.



Chelsea 2 - 1 Stoke City
My sister went back to sleep after seeing Delap scoring for Stoke, and Chelsea not finding the net. It looked to the Blues that they were going to suffer another home defeat.
After celebrating United's victory, I switched to another channel - To see the score being 1-1 !
Belletti scored, the commentator said. And then there were 4 minutes of added time after 90.
Expecting the score to stay, I witnessed firing squads of Chelsea in the Stoke goal front.
And Lampard strikes the winner!
Chelsea coach, players and fans were ecstatic!



Gosh! Gosh!
What a day of football. And I'm lucky to see it all.
Late goals turning the game and the championship odds.
Woo!

I can now sleep in peace...
... so does my sister !
:D
