Today's football.

The final is at Wembley, and there won't be an English team even getting remotely close to playing in it. I'm sure Platini is cackling away as we speak

Corrupt UEFA...

utd had plenty off time to prepare for the game with easy matches, more rest time and ability to rest key players for this match. Madrid havent. Fergie moans all the time about schedules in the build up to key games.

Real shame this for United. They played really well first half, and Giggs in particular was outstanding. Ref has done them big time here. Awful decision. Can't see any way back now.

Happy with this. United might have let the league slip back into a competition if they were embroiled in Europe.

I hope the Kopites are watching as intently again in May when United lift #20.

He who laughs last etc....

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Hilarious this. Can't wait for the Fergie fume afterwards.

Ref was quite entitled to interpret that as a red for me, even if it was tad harsh.

Under what law?

Madrid played a load of reserves against Barca on Saturday.


And still won.

TBF the last time there was an CL final at Wembley an English team wasnt to be seen during the match.

This ruins any chances Man U will play reserves in the fa cup, though.

 

[roydo]

Why did he not start? Why would anyone choose to start Welbeck over him.

He hasnt done too bad TBH. Shown more than RVP I reckon. Would have started Rooney though!

 

[toffee-fellaini]

Good goal by Modric though...

They won the league last month though...

It is a complete shambles though. Chelsea into the Europa, Man City out at the first hurdle and Arsenal getting hammered by Bayern. A really poor showing. If this keeps happening, they might take away one of our champs league spots. Oh won't Platini and his yes men slime balls enjoy that day

Yeah he hasn't been to bad but I think Rooney on a bad day is still better than Welbeck.
