The Ecuadorian winger who netted the opening goal against Blackburn http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rovers-c40385 for the Red Devils has been praised by the likes of Ashley Young and Rafael da Silva as Manchester United look likely to capture title number 20....
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Valencia-c6345 might not get any end of the season awards from the Premier League or the Manchester United fans themselves but his recent contribution to their title run in has been anything but unspectacular. Valencia has been
the catalyst for Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s team who now have a five point advantage over Manchester City in the title race.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 came up with
a powerful strike that left the net bulging at the Blackburn end. Valencia’s opening goal against Blackburn then paved the way for an exquisite strike by Ashley Young as well as United gained a 2-0 win over Steve Kean’s team.
The former Wigan player has been a reliable weapon for Sir Alex who has opted to omit either http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nani-c27299 or Young from his first team squad at the expense of Valencia, due to the winger’s consistent unrelenting style of play.
Young praised his team mate as he said, "Antonio was brilliant and he got his rewards with a goal. As a fellow winger I will give him it as a shot”. Rafael also praised the Ecuadorian winger as he stated, “Maybe the keeper wasn't
expecting a shot from that distance. That is why it went in."
Manchester United will hope that Valencia can continue to provide the goods from the right wing for them as they still have some way to go in the title race as their next match is against a battling Queens Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314 side which
has defeated http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 already this season and might want to add United’s name to their list of giants that have been taken down by their hands this season.
