Let me start by telling you guys that John O'Shea is United's defender.

But that wasn't the case this morning.

On the eve of his birthday, John O'Shea scored the only goal of the game at the 17th minute as they cruise into a 1-0 first leg victory against Arsenal.

Six Alex Ferguson said that he would be delighted if United would lead 1-0 on the first leg of the semi-final, therefore, his team delivered.

Ryan Giggs also set another milestone for United. He appeared on his 800th fixture as a player for Manchester United. He is really the fitting person to receive the PFA Player of the Year award.

The second leg of the semi-final action will be played next week, May 6th at 3:00 AM.
