Match 7: Fourth away game results in a 4th consecutive away draw! (Video)

Sunderland 0-0 Manchester United, hands on heads says it all

 Sunderland 0-0 Manchester United

DW Stadium

1500 KO, well 15.20 because of a water flood in the United  dressing room

Manchester United carry on with their poor away form this season as they draw their 4th consecutive away game at the DW Stadium, also known as the Stadium of Light, the same place where Arsenal drew 1-1 two weeks ago.

The game was delayed by 20 minutes because apparently one of the water pipes in the Manchester United changing room burst opened.

Sir Alex played a strange 4-3-3 formation without Wayne Rooney. Michael Owen played upfront for the first half and was replaced by the in-form Dimitar Berbatov. It was really a surprising move, one would feel sympathy for Michael who was barely provided with any quality service.  

Rafael and Captain Vidic were yellow carded. Anderson was substituted for the newly signed Bebe who barely looked comfortable.

Macheda made way to Hernandez who showed quick feet and good awareness.

What surprises me the most is, United didn't even have a single shot on target! How impossible is that?

All I can say is well done Steve Bruce, you're certainly in line for being the next United boss. Also well-played Sunderland!

Mike Phelan: "It was a fair game"

Sir Alex Ferguson "Happy with draw"
