Title: Tevez leaves Ince reeling

As a Man Utd supporter, reading this article is of course enjoyable. :) For those who doesn't know anything about football, football clubs and players, Tevez is an Argentina player playing for Manchester United (which is a great football club!). Ince is a manager who help manages the club. A manager is someone who decides which player is to be substituted out or in during a match, which player to sell or buy, and which formation or tactic to employ during a match. Man Utd defeated Blackburn (which is another football club) with the more than satisfying result of 5-3. Looking at this result, you can more or less guess why Tevez leaves Ince (the manager of Blackburn) reeling. The reason is that Tevez had a four-goal haul in this match, which practically leaves Ince 'reeling'. For people who doesn't 'catch' soccer, the usual score is 1-0, 2-1 or 3-1 etc. Tevez alone scored 4 goals, and the more memorable one is his finishing of Ryan Giggs' (another great player at Man Utd) awesome pass. Even though Blackburn had their fair share of scoring (3 goals), it is still not enough to unsettle Man Utd. (Personally, I think that those goals are a result of Man Utd's careless defending). Tevez had been left on the bench for quite some time, thus he should be happy with his performance.

Hahaha, Ferguson (Man Utd's manager) is going to have a hard time deciding which players to field this season. (since every Man Utd player is a good player!) :D

I agree that Sir Alex Ferguson would have a really hard time choosing players to play because there are so many talents at Man Utd and only 11 places available! I think it's very good that Tevez can score 4 goals and prove his worth to Sir Alex Ferguson finally! :D It goes to show that his hard work on the field would not be gone unnoticed.
