MANCHESTER UNITED ARE KINGS OF EUROPE






Already crowned League Champions a couple of weeks ago, Manchester United marched on to Moscow led by Sir Alex Ferguson to try and achieve a Double by winning the UEFA Champions League. The title is one that United have claimed twice, Once under Sir Alex...before the 21st May encounter with Chelsea
With Ronaldo scoring first, it took a Lampard goal for their opponents Chelsea to push the game into penalties. At one point when Ronaldo missed his try it looked like it was all over but John Terry's attempt failed which led to a sudden death situation...It was all drama and goalkeeper Van Der Saar was the hero for the night after he in 1999 when the victory led to the eternal question...."Where were you when Ole Gunnar scored in injury time?...Where were you when Manchester United scripted the best ever comeback in the history of the game?"
This time the questions would be "Where were you when young Nani and Anderson made their shots count? Where were you when Cristiano Ronaldo scored against Petr Cech? Where were you when Van Der Saar wrote himself a golden page in Uniteds History books? Where were you when Ryan Giggs and Rio Ferdinand lifted that trophy?"
And this time i can say i was there supporting my team...

Probably my second most happiest memory ever...Congratulations to the Red Devils...
Glory Glory Man United...
PS: We never win things the easy way, do we?
