Is it a game of two halves ?!

The tension was there for all too feel
This one mattered, it was the real deal
2 -1 at Anfield, could we repeat the result
Surely Utd losing at home would be an insult
The team were announced without our midfield magician
So up steps the Brazilian to take on the impossible mission
But more bad news our right back is hurt
Another gladiator is needed to pull on the red shirt
So a quick change of ends Gerrard is smart
This will unsettle the Mancs will they lose heart
The game kicks off and it is a tight affair
But their forwards are all over us, defenders be aware
An interception, reverse pass and Park is in
And a sprawling Reina takes him out to an almighty din
Penalty is awarded and put away with ease
We are already one down this isn’t going to be a breeze
But ..Torres movement was starting to have an effect
A quick ball to chase and Vidic was checked
The ball is in the net it is now one, one
The game has changed shape this is not yet done
A sublime pass in the box and Gerrard is in the area
Evra is caught for pace and fouls, a penalty, hysteria
A spot kick at Old Trafford and not for the home team
Left or Right Gerrard shapes it two one, it’s a dream
The reds are on the march can we just keep our cool
The ref blows for half time 1 , 2 Liverpool !
