KIKO was Definitely the KEY

Hooray!!! At last!! A win at the Stadium of Light, provided by the magical Kiko Macheda!! A name most of us wouldn't have heard 2 weeks ago is now the provider of Man United's last 2 wins at the English Premier League. This 17-year-old is truly magical. Recruited from Man United's U-18 team, he could now be an important sub for the Red Devils. 

The game was a devastating game from start to finish for the Devils. An early effort from Man United was only putted away from goal by a block done by Calum Davenport. Moments later, Djibril Cisse, the Frenchman, almost gave Man United a shock when he made Foster do his best to keep his net clean. However, it didn't take long for Man United to find the first breakthrough. The mix of young talent, great striker, and a flamboyant midfielder - Rooney, Berbatov and Scholes, gave Man United the first lead at the 19th minute. It was a well-earned lead but yet vulnerable. 

Vulnerable yes indeed. After the first goal, the Black Cats Sunderland grew in confidence and plenty of shocks filled the game, with both goalkeepers feeling completely gifted not to concede any goals. Man United was put into a state of fear when 3 chances of Sunderland went too close and Craig Gordon, at the other side, was also relieved not to pick up a ball from behind his net. 

The first half then ended, assuring that the second half would only be much better.

11 minutes into the second half, a shock for Man United came. Jones, from Sunderland, converted a magnificent cross into a goal, leaving Foster to his amazement. But, Man United was again incredible. The crown turned into pandemonium when a long-range effort from Michael Carrick was blasted and ricochet off Federico "Kiko" Macheda, leaving the helpless Craig Gordon who went the wrong way. Deliberately or not, it was a gift for Man United and now they had earned back their vital lead.

The last fifteen minutes of the game was suspense but still, the brilliance of Man United put them 2 points clear at the top of the Barclays Premier League. Another game down, another 3 points got. 7 games left. Who will be the champions of England? Man United surely looks to be the greatest contender for the title. Let's just hope that there will be cheers at the end of the season at Old Trafford.

Viva Man United!

Glory, glory, Man United

Glory, glory, Man United

Glory, glory, Man United

And the reds go marching on, on, on...
