Dominating Newcastle

Scunthorpe was defeated with a little bit of difficulty as Manchester United played the second team. I have been looking forward to an opportunity to play Kuszczak in the goal in lieu of Van der Sar. The line up in this match against Scunthorpe was

Kuszczak
Neville, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra
Miller, Fletcher, Sung, Richardson
Rossi, Smith
Manchester United won 2 – 1. The two goals were scored by Rossi and Saha, who came in place of Smith.

The following match with Newcastle saw a goal feast. Manchester United won 4 – 0. All four goals were scored by Rooney. Ferdinand was unfortunately sent off in the 45th minute and Smith was immediately taken off, Vidic coming in to bolster the defence.
