Match Review (Blackburn vs Man U)

A sub-par performance from the 2 veterans, and a superb performance by Friedel cost Utd 2 points. A good goal by Tevez cancelled out Santa Cruz's lucky goal. Also a definite Utd penalty not spotted by the referee.

Kuszczak (6): Good block with his leg for the 'penalty' claim, did ok.
Brown (5): Could not stopped Pederson on his own.
Ferdinand (6): At fault for the goal, average display overall.
Vidic (6): A bit rusty after some weeks out.
Evra (6.5): Usual hard work, not much to show for.
Ronaldo (6.5): Not at his best, but still hit the post and forced a good save out of Friedel.
Carrick (7): Many good passes, but were not converted into goals.
Scholes (4.5): Bad display in the 1st half, slightly better in the 2nd.
Giggs (4): A forgetable day, Utd played with 9 men in the 1st half, with Scholes and Giggs missing.
Tevez (6): Played with energy, but no purpose until the goal.
Rooney(5.5): Got frustrated and affected his play.

Subs Nani (5.5) (sub Giggs 45) Average game, better balls in than Giggs.
O'Shea (6) (sub Brown 81) Nothing much to show for, except for a good chance which was saved by Friedel's leg.
Park (5) (sub Rooney 90) Not much time for his energetic runs.
