Manchester United 5-0 Birmingham City 22 January 2011


Manchester United are racing away with the English premier league title at the moment, they are unbeaten and hoping to rap up the title pretty soon. The perfect start for United, but a nightmare for Birmingham.
The ball is going in anyway but Dimitar Berbatov is on the line to make sure, and steal the goal too.


After coming away from a testy trip to Tottenham with top spot in the Premier League intact, Manchester United look to keep up their fine home form as they host struggling Birmingham City.


Meanwhile Birmingham City coach Alex McLeish will be aware that his side will have to be at its best if they are to have any hopes of coming away from Old Trafford with at least a point. The Blues have won just one of their last 13 games and find themselves just one point above the drop zone.

Birmingham actually have the same amount of defeats as Chelsea (six), but they also have the same amount of wins as West Ham (four), with their 11 draws being the culprit for their current placement in the table.


Team Squad :-


Man Utd: Van der Sar, O’Shea, Vidic, Smalling, Evra, Nani, Carrick, Anderson, Giggs, Berbatov, Rooney.
Subs: Kuszczak, Owen, Scholes, Fabio Da Silva, Evans, Obertan, Gibson.


Birmingham: Foster, Carr, Johnson, Ridgewell, Murphy, Bentley, Ferguson, Mutch, Fahey, Hleb, Derbyshire.
Subs: Doyle, Bowyer, Larsson, Gardner, Jerome, Zigic, Jiranek.


A corner was flicked-on at the near post by O’Shea and Dimitar Berbatov applied the finishing touch from a yard off the line.
Rooney release Dimitar Berbatov in the inside left channel. A Dimitar Berbatov helped Manchester United to thrash Birmingham City in this very one sided Premier League encounter. Ryan Giggs and Nani also grabbed goals as Sir Alex Ferguson’s side romped home at Old Trafford.
The Bulgarian added another before the break, then completed his hat-trick in the second-half. Luis Nani danced his way infield from the right and curled a lovely shot into Foster’s far corner.
