Manchester United Vs. Chelsea FC: Nemanja Vidic Goal All But Kills Blues’ Season

It appears to be all over now, as Manchester United are now up 2-0 on Manchester United after 24 minutes of play. Nothing but a win will do for Chelsea, who now have to score three goals while conceding none to get back into the English Premier League title race. Nemanja Vidic is the scorer, putting in a header off of a corner kick, and the crowd at Old Trafford is celebrating like they've already won the title.

The corner kick was created by a Park Ji-Sung shot when Chelsea was expecting a cross, shocking Petr Cech and forcing him to simply palm the ball out of bounds. United took the corner short, setting up a Ryan Giggs cross into the box. Chelsea's marking on the set piece was horrendous, and Vidic was able to nod the ball into the back of the net virtually uncontested. It was a great ball in by Giggs, but the lack of opposition to Vidic was totally inexcusable.
