Manchester United 2 - 0 Valencia CF

So, Emily and Tor are back from their holiday in South Africa. They were away for ages and I missed them so much - it's really good to have them back. I've spent so much time with them since they've been back in Manchester, it's been excellent. I bought them some nice flowers on their return to go in their brand new inner-city apartment.
Whilst they were away, I remembered what Emily had said months back about wanting to go to a football game - so, as a surprise, I took the chance to get some tickets to the Friendly match at Old Trafford between Manchester United and Valencia CF.
The stadium is just under two and a half miles away from my house - so not that far - yet I've not really been to too many games there. In fact, I've probably been to Maine Road more - even though I'm not a Manchester City supporter, so it was good to go again.
We both enjoyed the game and I think Emily is planning to become a hardcore football hooligan.

I just watched the Colorado Rapids on TV, win 4 to 0.

It was RUBBISH. Haha. The standard of MLS doesn't come close to the Premier League.
The game even stopped at one point for about 3 minutes and nobody had any idea why. All the players were just stood about looking at each other, and the commentators were totally confused as to what's going on.

The first goal of the Rapids game was 26 seconds into the game
