when i woke up this morning to check soccernet, i had a premonition of doom. however, it soon turned into joy when i realised that rio ferdinand scored a last gasp goal to given man utd the win over liverpool. i couldnt wait to buy the new paper cos whenever big matches like this come around, there's usually a 6-8 page spread of it in the new paper. at home, when i saw the rio ferdinand goal and the emotions of the players when he scored. i was overwhelmed. ok fine i teared a little too. i mean watching them i could almost feel as if i was part of this team that had just won a hard fought match against their bitter rivals. i was especially heartened to see that they fought with real purpose. with passion. i guess in a twisted sort of way, they are my heroes. and you cant really be totally ok when your heroes are down and out. i mean somehow you just need your heroes to be perfect and stuff. meh, everyone needs heroes methinks.

whatever the case, man utd won, and that's that!
