I love how they bleat on about the 2nd challenge not being worthy of a yellow card.

Tomorrow's match is apparently nearly sold out.

Meanwhile several United players will undergo fitness tests in a bid to prove they're ready to come back into the side, with Halloran who missed on Sunday due to illness the most likely.

Been a pretty good game so far, plenty of noise from the crowd near us

It’s all well and good to say It’s a keepers mistake, that’s an absolute belter if a goal.

We won’t have Toure for long, he’s got far bigger fish to fry....

Not sure it was Keepers fault, he was positioning himself for the cut back into the middle.
Strike was just too good

He didn’t need to commit that much to expose his near post, should never get beaten from there. Great hit from Toure though, still gotta hit the target with pace.

Had a bad feeling about this game so chucked a $5er on MC 4-0 :oops: but much prefer this result should it stand.

It would be good if Toure turns out to be half as good as Liberian legend, George Weah, who is currently President.

Toure was born in Guinea.
Not Liberian

I think you will find he was born in Liberia, which is why he had the Liberian flag wrapped around him. Many Liberians living in Adelaide have come here via Guinea after they fled the Liberian civil war.

Assumed he is Liberian given he's the President.

Weah is Liberian
Toure is Guinean

You are correct that his parents fled Liberia and moved to Guinea but Al Hassan was born in Guinea and is Guinean
