60 minute mark: I move Cole over and put Jenas in for Barry.
72 minute mark: Wes Brown passes into the box to Joe Cole who heads it.. the keeper pushes it over the bar.

75 minute mark: Downing dribbles down the left sideline.. crosses it to Defoe by the far post.. he heads it over the bar.
85 minute mark: Downing fires a pass to Rooney in the left side of the box.. Rooney shoots.. the keeper blocks it.. the defender collects the rebound.. Kang Jin-Wook passes it back to the keeper.. the keeper misses it! GOAL!!!! 1-0! What an Own GOAL!!!
Game over. 1-0 win. Not the most convincing win, but I'll take it.
