The match at Villa Park this Saturday made it clear that United has the best strike force in Europe. United were a goal down at the end of the first half and were two down just minutes after the start of the second half. Sir Alex then took off the former Villa winger, Ahsley Young and on came Chicharito, who kept his cool and guided the ball into the net from a wonderful threw ball from Paul Scholes, in was the first in United's comeback. A deflection of a shot from Chicharito ended up in the goal which made United level with Villa in the 63rd minute.

Aston Villa 2 Weimann 45+1, 50
Manchester United 3 Hernandez 58, 87, Vlaar(og) 63
Van Persie took a free kick in the 87th minute which was headed over by Chicharito into the bottom corner which was the fourth of the season for the Mexican.
Hernandez said "I dont care if they don't give me the 2nd goal, for me I score a hattrick to my teammates to win the game. The matchball is coming home!"
"The way Chicharito has started this season - he'll get 20 plus goals." Sir Alex Ferguson.
The match was not 'all well' for United as Evans was injured which made way for Smalling who had his problems marking Benteke and Agbonlahor. Scholes unbelievably was not able to move the ball around with Ireland right on his toes. Even the strikers had a bad day with Van Persie hitting the frame of the goal twice and Rooney with his long range attempts many of which were not on target.
United are now 4 points clear at the top with Chelsea and City with their matches on Sunday.
