It was good to be back and what a game it was. The evenings started at the pub as I said early the pub has knocked a hole in the wall to the next building and are in the process of doing it up, they put some chairs and a sofa or two in it. We sat on a sofa and had a couple of drinks I look forward to coming back when it is finished we will come back later in the season and maybe have a drink!
After we popped into the Pompey superstore we headed for the ground and with our new season cards we got up to the new turnstiles and got in with no probs.
So to the game the first half was all United we played a 433 formation that did not work United took the lead when new signing Carlos Tevez set up Paul Scholes who fired in from 25 yards, and I had a feeling we were about to be destroyed but no up pops Benjani with superb header past Edwin van der Sar. Redknapp changed formation at half time and the goal proves it worked. The match ended on an unsavoury note when Muntari received his marching orders from referee Steve Bennett after a late challenge on Carrick, and then Ronaldo received a straight red for his part in a head butt on Hughes.
So we get another point so roll on Bolton this Saturday Play Up Pompey
