Man u 2008/09

During what turned out to be a monumental weekend in the title race in late April, Liverpool had edged into the box seat thanks to an injury-time winner over Fulham at Craven Cottage. Less than 24 hours after our old rivals had forced the title race door ajar, this relatively unknown year-old Italian came off the bench at Old Trafford to slam it shut in sensational style. Macheda's 93rd-minute winner against Aston Villa, a peach of a goal on his senior debut, sealed a stunning comeback — United were down with just 10 minutes to play — and turned the young Roman striker into an instant hero. Its psychological significance proved even greater. Sir Alex Ferguson's men went from staring down the barrel of a third successive defeat to winning every other league game that season, bar a home draw against Arsenal. The campaign took time to click into gear, though. A month into the season, champions United were 15th, seven points adrift of early pace-setters Chelsea. Sir Alex's side soon found their stride and although the Reds were still seven points off the pace at the turn of the year — Liverpool now topping the pile — the league table was misleading. There was the odd rout — big home wins against West Bromwich Albion and Stoke City — but it was United's professionalism rather than panache that steered us into a position from which to charge for the line. The Reds kept 23 clean sheets in the league and goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar set a new British record when, after a defeat at Arsenal in early November, he went 1, minutes without conceding. By the time the big Dutchman did have to pick a ball out of his net again — at Newcastle in early March — United were flying high at the top of the league. And then one of the more forgettable days in recent history: a humiliating home defeat against Liverpool shocked Old Trafford and let Rafa Benitez's side back into contention. The following week, the gap narrowed to just a point when nine-man United lost at Fulham and Liverpool thumped Aston Villa

Retrieved 7 July The score was turned on its head shortly after the half-hour mark, when the home side hit a two-goal salvo in as many minutes.
