Just a very small posting to celebrate Ronaldo’s fantastic free-kick last night. If you haven’t seen it, it’s shown below. He notched up his usual brace and that puts him on 27 goals for the season so far and he’s closing in on George Best’s best ever tally. Ferguson reckoned it was the best-ever free-kick yet seen in the Premiership and today’s reports reckon Man U’s first-half performance was just electrifying – the most complete period of football most fans have ever witnessed. In view of next week’s 50th anniversary of the Munich disaster, could there possibly be a more fitting tribute to the memory of those who died? Enough poignancy, just enjoy this beautiful piece of football:
lovejoy!

Yes, do it against City – and some.
David James din’t even move for this one! The only way he would have stopped it was if he was standing in the spot before the strike. A-mazing! Let’s hope the lad keeps it up for the rest of the year.
hi m
yep, he’s on fire at the moment and fitness permitting he ought overtake Best’s mark by season end. he seems to have developed an entirely different technique for free-kicks – very straight by up and down still. amazing as you say.
