It was another bad decision."....Fernando Torres and David Ngog scored second-half goals.

? ..... Vidic was sent off after picking up two yellow cards, and Jamie Carragher later brought down United substitute Michael Owen.

Sir Alex expressed disappointment with the ability of his own players to come to terms with the noise inside Anfield....."There was a wounded animal aspect to the game and it was something we did not overcome,"
