Manchester United Vs Manchester City 3 1, Wayne Rooney headed Manchester United to Wembley with an injury time winner to beat Manchester City in a pulsating 3-1 victory.
After Carlos Tevez had threatened to take the semi-final into extra-time when he superbly turned home Craig Bellamy’s cross 14 minutes from time, up popped Rooney, who nodded home Ryan Giggs’ cross to secure a Carling Cup final meeting with Aston Villa on February 28.
Red Devils thought they were already in Wembley Controlling possession against a City side which sat too deep, they had carved out a decisive lead thanks to two precise finishes from Paul Scholes and Michael Carrick either side of the interval.
Only Tevez’s refusal to bow down to the feet of his old club kept the Blues going, but it was not enough. And though Rooney inexplicably failed to grab a third before Tevez struck, he is too much a part of United’s fabric to merely accept defeat.
