Blackpool vs. Manchester United : Match Report


Manchester United with a great come-back, from 2-0 down, to win the game by 3 - 2. After a serious hard first half, Sir Alex Ferguson was able to switch the emphasis and impressively beat Blackpool. After half-time, on top and two goals up, it appeared Blackpool would end United's unbeaten record and achieve a result that would go down in the history books alongside the `Matthews Final' in 1953.

But those goals from Red Devils old-boy Craig Cathcart and DJ Campbell were insufficient to resist United, who were galvanised by Ryan Giggs and Javier Hernandez.

The Mexican struck the all-important equaliser but once again it was Dimitar Berbatov who did the damage for the rampant Red Devils, tapping home his side's first 19 minutes from time before driving home his 20th goal of the season - and his fifth in four days - to send Sir Alex Ferguson's men five points clear. So its Blackpool 2 - Manchester United 3 and with 51 points on top of the Barclays Premier League.
