Manchester United at Derby County FA Cup 5th Round First Half

The fifth round proper of the FA  CUP drew Derby County for the Red Devils of Manchester.

SAF started the game with a lineup that shows his depth in squad, with all Park, Gibson, Fletcher, and Nani in the midfield.  What I found quite interesting is the experimenting by SAF with Ronaldo and Giggs paired together up front.

The highlight of the first half for me was Ronaldo’s 19th minute free kick from 35 yards out right into the lower half of Robbie Savage.  Does anyone think that Ronaldo was aiming for this after the Savage took him down earlier on in the game with a whistle?
