Manchester United 4 West Brom 0 (19 Oct 2008 )
Rooney 56, Ronaldo 69, Berbatov 72, Nani 90
The manager described it as their best display of the season and the only possible concern, apart from the hamstring injury that forced off Patrice Evra, was Ronaldo's peculiar reaction after he had placed a left-foot shot through Scott Carson's legs. Too much can be read into a goal celebration, but compare Ronaldo's glower with Rooney's double knee-slide or the sunrise of a smile that crossed Berbatov's face after he had turned in Nani's cross to make it 3-0.It culminated in United's 34th 4-0 victory under Ferguson. |
