Berbatov slid in with a rare tackle to rob Hleb, the ball finding Rooney. The pair played a brilliant one-two before Rooney whipped in a low cross to the far post. Giggs met the cross and chipped it into goal from a tight angle outside the 6-yard box. It was the kind of goal that makes you wonder whether the man is really 37 years old!
The sparkling trio of Giggs, Rooney and Berbatov were at it again. The move actually originated from a clearance by Van der Sar, which found Rooney on the left flank. The English hitman displayed some wonderful control before passing to Giggs, who squared the ball to Berbatov in the box. He wasnbrs"t going to miss his hat-trick of hat-tricks from six yards out. It wasnrrs"t too long ago United fans were calling for the Bulgarianprs"s head, so talk about silencing your critics!
If last weektrs"s match against Tottenham exhibited Unitedtrs"s defensive stringency, this performance sure did tell a thing or two about their attacking abilities. The win stretches United rs"s unbeaten run to 22 games this season and Sir Alex Ferguson will hope his team has finally upped a gear as they slowly make way through the second half of what has already been a truly captivating season.
The Bulgarian is a goal machine. Dimitar Berbatov has scored another hat trick, which was his third of the season. It was another routine home win for Manchester United, a 5-0 thumping of Birmingham City with all of Old Trafford revelling in Berbatov's predatory grace.But it wasn't a one-man-band. Although he didn't score, Wayne Rooney provided two wonderful assists in his excellent display. The English striker was instrumental in almost all of Manchester United's build-up play, linking up wonderfully with his flowery touch. The only reason he wasn't on the scoresheet was because he missed a header about a meter from the goal, yet Rooney's return to scoring seems imminent.These aren't just another three points for Manchester United.
