Manchester United Falls to Zenit St. Petersburg in Super Cup Action

Sir Alex Ferguson started seven men who took home the UEFA Champions League trophy last May but still came up short against the determined Russian side in Super Cup action this weekend. Zenit also played seven from last May’s starting XI that dispatched Rangers 2-0 in the UEFA Cup.  Zenit St. Petersburg did have the advantage of being in better shape. The club is now past the halfway mark in this year’s Russian Premier League. Another key to the match was Zenit’s recent signing of Portuguese midfielder Danny who scored the club’s second goal. Danny made English international Rio Ferdinand look rather silly during the buildup to the score.  Sir Alex will have to wait to add a third Super Cup to his list.   In other United news Forgotten forward Louis Saha is moving to Everton after the 30-year-old agreed to a deal.
