Mid-week Football Round-up

So Manchester United won its game against Newcastle United last night and restored the lead over second-placed Chelsea to sevn points, with a game in hand. Sweet!

Manchester United conceded an early goal, ending van der Sar's record of 1,311 minutes of league football without conceding a goal. This is such an incredible record, considering the quality of the English Premier League and the age of the Dutchman. Rooney scored an equaliser on the 20th minute and Berbatov scored the winning goal later in the second half.

Now, the Barclays Premier League stands as follows:


Manchester United's next league game will be against Liverpool at Old Trafford on 14 March. This may be one of the biggest game of the season, with Manchester United trying to avenge their defeat at Anfield early this season. Manchester United's next match is a FA Cup Quarter Final game against Fulham at the Craven Cottage on Saturday, 7 March.

Also, DPMM Brunei FC won its second game in the Singapore's S-League with a 2-1 win over Super Red of Korea, who came in second in last season's campaign. Not a bad start for a newcomer to the S-League!
