Christiano Ronaldo Videos

Cristiano Ronaldo sat out, along with Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov, as Carlos Tevez took center stage, firing 4 goals in Manchester United’s thrilling a 5-3 win over Blackburn Rovers on Wednesday.  Ronaldo, along with Rooney and Berbatov were rested for this Carling Cup quarter final that pitted ex manchester United player Paul Ince against his old boss.

The gaggle of stars that were given the night off were barely missed as Carlos tevez opened the scoring in the 36th minute, before assisting for Luis Nani after just before half-time.  Blackburn pulled one back after the break but were soon silenced a minute later as Tevez scored from the penalty spot.  Two more Tevez strikes, offset by three Rovers goals from Benni McCarthy (2) and Matt Derbyshire saw United run out less than comfortable winners in a topsy-turvy match.

Ronaldo and the rest of United’s stars watched from the cheap seats and they were no doubt pleased with what they saw.  This was a huge performance for Carlos Tevez who had been struggling to get a run in the team, but took this opportunity to prove his undoubted worth.

The match also saw a run-out for Paul Scholes who has not played since injuring his knee in late September.

United are now in the semi-finals of the Carling Cup, along with Spurs, Burnley and Derby County.

Sunday, November 30th, City of Manchester Stadium, England

Manchester City 0 - 1 Manchester United (Rooney, 42)

Wayne rooney scored his 100th league goal as Manchester United ground out a vital victory on Sunday against fierce rivals Manchester City.  United Dominated for long periods of the game and could have scored more if not for some fine goalkeeping from Joe Hart.

Rooney was the games’ only scorer, having tapped in after Dimitar Berbatov saw his low shot parried by Hart.  The one negative for United was the dismissal of Cristiano Ronaldo in the 68th minute for two bookable offences after he inexplicably handled the ball following a City corner.  Ronaldo said “I heard a wistle. Thats why I block the ball. Why else would I have done that?”  It was a bizare incident that brought back memories of when Paolo DiCanio caught the ball during a premier League match because the opposing goalkeeper was down injured.

Ronaldo’s prior booking was for a foul on Shaun Wright-Phillips

This is Ronny’s 2nd ever red card as a Manchester United player, but his manager was not critical of his young star. Ferguson said “He thought he had heard a whistle, he got a little push as well and it is not as if he punched the ball. The crowd played a part and he got sent off.”

However, City boss Mark Hughes agreed with referee Howard Webb’s decision, and added: “I don’t think the referee had any choice. I thought he was going to catch it at one point.

“It was a clear handball. It was a soft sending off but clearly a second bookable offence.

“I don’t know what reason he will give for doing it but if he says the ball was going to hit him in the face why didn’t he head it?”

Man City: Hart, Richards (Sturridge 76), Kompany, Dunne, Garrido, Wright-Phillips, Ireland, Hamann (Elano 46), Vassell (Zabaleta 46), Robinho, Mwaruwari.
Subs Not Used: Schmeichel, Ball, Jo, Ben-Haim.

Booked: Ireland, Vassell.

Man Utd: Van der Sar, Rafael Da Silva, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Ronaldo, Carrick, Fletcher, Park (O’Shea 90), Rooney, Berbatov (Giggs 83).
Subs Not Used: Foster, Anderson, Nani, Evans, Tevez.

Sent Off: Ronaldo (68).
