Booking for Rooney in goalless first half

Manchester United 0 Aston Villa 0

Thomas Sorensen produced a superb fingertip save to deny Park Ji-Sung as Aston Villa held on at Old Trafford despite being totally outplayed by Manchester United.

The visitors managed to keep United at arm’s length for the first 25 minutes but were reliant on Sorensen to ensure they were on level terms at the break, the Dane flying across his goal to push Park’s fierce drive onto the bar.
