World Group II tie.
Jonas Brodin Wild Jersey . Bencic showed
great composure to break Razzano five times in the one-sided match. "I just
played with no pressure," Bencic told Sport Plus television. "I just enjoyed the
match. I was so relaxed." Bencic took a 4-0 lead and won the first set when
Razzano netted a volley. The 16-year-old Swiss capitalized on two forehand
errors from Razzano to also break serve at 2-1 and 4-1 in the final set. Bencic
converted her third match point when the 30-year-old Razzano sent a backhand
into the net. "I couldnt do anything against her today," Razzano told Sport Plus
television. "I think shes an unbelievable player. She plays some dream tennis.
Her future is promising." Earlier, Alize Cornet beat Timea Bacsinszky 6-2, 7-6
(4) to give France a 2-1 lead. Cornet won six straight games to rally from a 2-0
deficit and take the first set. The 25th-ranked Frenchwoman broke back twice in
the second set before Bacsinszky saved a match point at 5-4. In the tiebreaker,
Cornet jumped to a 5-2 lead and clinched victory when Bacsinszkys backhand
sailed wide. "Amelie kept her trust in me today and Im glad I did not prove her
wrong," Cornet said in reference to France captain Amelie Mauresmo. In Saturdays
singles, Razzano dismissed Stefanie Voegele 6-2, 6-1 to put France ahead before
Bencic upset Cornet 7-5, 6-4 to level the tie.

outfielder Jose Constanza to Triple-A Gwinnett. As expected, the Braves also
called up right-hander Julio Teheran from Gwinnett to start Sundays game and
optioned backup catcher J.It may have been Chelsea who recently featured in an
episode of The Simpsons, but its Manchester United who have morphed into a mere
caricature of themselves. Rooneys latest piece of football genius lost in the
furore which now stalks David Moyes, and the man who gave the Manchester United
striker his start as a 16-year old at Goodison Park back in 2002. Verbally
abused as he sat in the dugout during the later stages of yet another disjointed
performance in the midweek Manchester Derby - a banner which proclaimed the
Ferguson rubber stamped appointment has now become a focal point for growing
supporter fury with the 50-year old Scotsman. The Chosen One has become the
Chastised One. The Old Trafford storm clouds are certainly gathering and how
Moyes will hope that infamous Manchester rain will play its part just ahead of
the kick off against Aston Villa Saturday when most of the 75,000 in attendance
will be gazing skyward at a plane which will trail a, "Wrong One: Moyes Out"
banner. Weve moved on then from a time where fans would meet down the pub
pre-match and march in protest to the ground. This fly by is not the work of a
few mavericks merely looking for cheap publicity at Moyes expense, but is the
response to a season lost from the all influential Red Issue Fanzine. Raising
the $1,500 cost in less time it took for Toure to bang in a third Manchester
City goal, earlier Friday Red Issue explained their motivation for organizing
the fly by protest in a statement to the media. "The decision to fly a plane
over Old Trafford bearing the slogan Wrong One: Moyes Out is one born out of
acute frustration. It is frustration at the poor results, lack of fight on the
pitch and the unavoidable signs that David Moyes isnt up to the highest
standards required to manage Manchester United Football Club." "A significant
proportion of Manchester United fans have had enough and unequivocally want
David Moyes sacked. Further frustration has been created from the inaccurate
perception that all Manchester United fans are behind David Moyes." "The plane
and banner which will fly over the stadium this Saturday attempts to directly
counter this very unpopular [Chosen One] banner with the words Wrong One and the
Moyes Out wording is our statement of what a significant group of Manchester
United fans want to happen next at our club." Choice words. To his credit at
Fridays pre-match press conference, Moyes defended the supporters right to
protest and reiterated his appreciations to all the supporters who continue to
back him. Intriguingly that number includes the supporter who rose to Old
Trafford infamy when back in 1989 he unfurled a banner which demanded Fergsuon
depart a club he had been in charge of for three years but was yet to deliver
any silverware. We all know now how that ended. Such though has been the
dramatic fall from grace under Moyes, even the leagues CEO Richard Scudamore
felt compelled to discuss the matter when stating a belief Manchester Uniteds
current predicament was bad for business. No club in English football is more
passionately followed across the globe than the champions.
Matt Dumba Jersey. The season long funk has
also wreaked havoc with Rio Ferdinands personal and social life. The six-time
BPL winner has disclosed a preference currently for not taking his kids to
school or go out for an evening. This, as ways to avoid supporters and the
embarrassment of a season that even with seven matches remaining will return the
lowest point total for Manchester United in the Premier League era.
Astonishingly, Sir Alex Ferguson is no longer immune from abuse; this occurring
as he was sat up in his directors box perch Wednesday evening. Not only did
Ferguson leave Moyes soiled goods with many players clearly past their sell by
date, there is also a growing sense Ferguson did most of the bidding for the
much despised Glazer family. Since they took control in 2005, the owners are
reported to have taken $1 biliion out of the club. This income has been taken
out to service interest payments and meet other financial demands. Money
supporters say should have been reinvested in the squad. To arrest the
decline it will take more than the type of panic buying that saw Manchester
United pay well over the market odds for Fellaini in the summer and Mata in
January. Let there be no doubt these are unprecedented times at Old Trafford.
One of the more popular London tabloids spoke Thursday of a coup led by the
class of 92 and bankrolled by oil money. Even the New York Stock Exchange got in
on the action when the clubs share price rose five per
cent.
For a club which has already lost six BPL matches at home, Moyes will need a
significant response from his players Saturday. Up next is an April Fools Day
date with the European Champions Bayern Munich. You can reach and follow Noel
