Here's the goal.

Gunners were just out of step-just never seemed to really click. Give credit to United though-they really played inspired. Ronaldo was very good-he's quality for sure. Once he matures...boy, he could really be an important player long-term.

I don't want to get introuble posting video of the whole match but boy, Keane's foul on Pires, the handball. For those in America who didn't see the match live...talking points for sure.

Pires...I'm down on him today. Missed an absolute sitter of a header. Sometimes there is a "softness" (for lack of a better term) about his game that bugs-the extra flick, the cute pass. Just score, oui?

And the keeper's save after the Edu chip-the play of the match?

I'm going with Carroll's save on Toure's header as the play of the match.

I know I'm biased but doesn't it seem as though Man United always seem to get that little bit of help they need when they aren't playing that well? I mean seriously Silvestre had two blatant handballs in the box. Is there a doubt in anyones mind that at least one of those calls would have gone Man U's way had it been Campbell handling?

the first one the ref couldn't see, the 2nd one there was no intent

I would have to agree with you on this. Fantastic play.

Mmehh, it was a good play but not that difficult. He had a lot of time to wait on the ball and head it out because Bergkamp chipped it. It wasn't one of those bang bang plays where a defender on the line has to react quickly. That's why I thought Carroll's save was better. He was out of position initially and had to get up quickly to save it.
