The Manchester United boss claimed that he was pleased with the eventual win yesterday but hoped that his side would stop conceding soft goals soon.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alan-c4244 Pardew’s men nearly got the better of the Red Devils at Old Trafford but United’s fire power was eventually able to carve out victory following some sensational moments on the pitch.
James Perch was the earliest to get his name on the score sheet, before http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jonny-Evans-c19085 netted to equalize for his side.
However, the Irish International also let in an own goal to gift the lead to Newcastle but fellow defender http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Patrice-Evra-c29231 found the back of the net in the 2nd half to level things once more.
A goal from Papiss Cisse looked to have earned the Magpies valuable three points, but http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380 and Javier Hernandez had the last laugh, managing to score late on and eventually claim victory for the hosts.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson was mightily pleased with the win, especially after Manchester City failed to get the better of Sunderland in their Premier League encounter, stretching the 19-time English champions’ lead to 7 points at the top.
“The statement was in the performance never mind where we are at this moment in time that was a championship performance. Absolutely brilliant they were. I wish it was the last game of the season. It tells you about the courage of our team," the Scottish
tactician was reportedly said while talking to the English press after the game.
“We had a lot of bad decisions against us in the first half. That could have demoralised the team. But they didn’t give in. That is the great quality they have. I am pleased. We were down three times and came back three times, then we scored the winner,”
Ferguson was quoted as saying while speaking to the media after the game.
With such displays, United are favourites to come out as winners in May, but their woeful defence could cost them progression in the UEFA Champions League when they meet Real Madrid in February.
However, with captain http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550 back to full form, the defensive crisis could be over sooner rather than later.
