Sinch's review of the game:

Linesman and ref decided not to give two United goals - the first one because they couldn't believe we could actually come up with a decent move, which was sort of fair enough, and the second because the linesman applauded Simpson's superb effort to head it safely to the keeper from an almost impossible angle, even though he actually failed and scored by accident.

Eckersley was a mite unlucky to be sent off for Eagles' foul. Not easy to mistake a floppy haired emo with a ginger nut, but apparently it can be done.

Kewell somehow managed to score. Law of averages I guess.

Eagles was half Ricky Villa, half Micky Village. Rest of United players were a bit embarrassed by the scum in midfield, but then they did have Alonso playing.

Possebon was sort of tidy, but does that thing where he steps on the ball and redirects it too often. Reminds me of Eric two names, which is not so good.

Hewson was rough and tumble. Mostly rough.

Welbeck and Macheda hardly touched the ball.

The defence was all over the place at the end, but they were chasing it.

Heaton was good. Simpson was sort of good in that he busted a gut, and kept on defending right to the end, even when in Liverpool's box faced with an open goal.
