All I needed was 1 point and the title was mine.

The game started a Liverpool went close with a Steven Gerrard long range shot. Towards the end of the 1st half Fletcher robbed possession off Gerrard and played in Rooney who smashed it into the top corner. In the second half Liverpool went close with shots from Luis Suárez and Craig Bellamy. Sebastián Coates then missed a sitter from a corner. I noticed Liverpool were tiring so I replaced Rooney with Hernández. Coates then conceded a penalty with a rash tackle on Fletcher and with my usual takers on the bench (Giggs and Rooney) Hernández stepped up and placed the ball into the bottom corner, which sealed the title. I was really please with the performance especially from the whole midfield who did not let Liverpool play.
