I'm Korean, but I was a Manchester United fan even before Park Ji-sung joined. This is because Sir Ferguson's football, which maximizes each player's individuality and creates a harmonious team, was so attractive. It's been 10 years since he left Manchester United, but I still haven't seen a team that beats Ferguson's Manchester United. I hope he will always be healthy and happy, who let me know about real football.
Park Ji Sung could still score although he was constantly marking Pirlo out of the game. no wonder in his best United 11 Evra included him....an unsung hero
I always remember the second Rooney goal at Old Trafford. Everything about it was perfect, the ghost inside the pass the burst of pace and the finish. Great goal. A Liverpool fan.

i remember ferguson came to the serie a match before this game to scope out milan...and ronaldinho was absolutely balling in that game and was on it. ferguson had that look in his face like shit this guy still a big threat. he put 2 to 3 players on ronaldinho to try and keep him quiet this match but if you see the uncut highlights ronaldinho played beastly. unfortunately milan were already going down by this point and the support wasnt there from other players and rooney was probably having his best season .
Pirlo was a major threat as well, so Park was made to mark him both games. He did such a good job that Pirlo said afterwards he had to look over his shoulder after walking off the pitch to make sure Park still wasn't next to him. "That man was my shadow" - Pirlo
