Manchester United played a well deserved win against Arsenal. The squad was different this time since it contained most of the defense players. Hence, the good part was seeing the Da Silva brothers Fabio and Rafael play together. Fabio opened the night with a good finish on Alumunia's goal. Rafael crossed it to Rooney who was able to head it towards Fabio and finally to the goal. The first goal was during the 28th minute. Arsenal had some good chances, but thanks to Van Der Sar, nothing got pass him. The second half started by a substitution were Fabio was replaced by Antonio Valencia who was absent for over three months due to his injury. Rooney started the second half with a goal in the 50th minute. It was well played by Rafael who slipped in into the Arsenal defense and passed it to Chicharito who finished it for Rooney to head it in the goal. Scholes also came on yet, some tension was found between him and Samir Nasri after a hard tackle done by Scholes. Its always good to see that smile on Sir Alex's face after todays win. So, Manchester United move on to the next round of the F.A cup and look forward to win it this year. United are now looking forward for the comming match vs. Marsielle in the Champions League.
