Not so “Super” Sunday 20 April.

Aston Villa 5 – 1 Birmingham City

Why doesn’t Fox Soccer Channel show all of the goals? For example, we see all of Aston Villa’s five goals against Birmingham City, but we are not shown City’s goal. We don’t know if it was a defensive breakdown, an the goalkeeper throwing the ball in his own net, or brilliant goal of the year. Who scored the goal? Does FSC pay for the rights to show the goals of only one team?

FYI: the scorers were (Villa) – Young (2), Carew (2), Agbonlahor; (B’ham) – Forssell

Blackburn Rovers 1 – 1 Manchester United. 19th April 2008

A game of two halves as the home team edged the first 45 minutes with santa Cruz scoring and Manchester United pourng forward in the second the find the equaliser that eventually came in the form of a header by Tevez. The game was notable for the number of penalty appeals igored by ref Rob Stiles. The lack of fear shown by the Blackburn players was something that other teams might learn from.
