After battled for about 2 hours and 45 minutes in a game last Wednesday, Manchester United won the UEFA Champion League for a third time in their history. Won through penalty shoot-out of 6-5 after normal and extra time ended 1-1.
An epic grandeur of Moscow – the wide expanses of Red Square and vast boulevards bisecting the city provided a backdrop of suitable magnitude for a domestic rivalry now given a European dimension – this match was quintessentially English. The cavernous bowl of the Luzhniki Stadium even had the feel of the old Wembley as the rain poured and the two teams went at each other with the ferocity of a Sunday league, never mind Premier League, game. Claude Makelele’s raised arm on Scholes left his opponent with a bloody nose, Michael Ballack reacted angrily to Tévez’s tackle from behind and Essien clattered into Ronaldo again. Then there was Didier Drogba’s slap on Nemanja Vidić that earned a red card.
The hero for the night is none bigger than the Dutch goalkeeper who had the last word in his maybe last conquest in Ultimate European Club title. With Cristiano Ronaldo’s effort denied by Petr Čech, John Terry had had the chance to clinch it for Chelsea but slipped on the rain-soaked turf and sent his spot-kick wide. Fifty years on from the Munich air crash, it seemed nothing was going to stop this being United’s final.

Anyway, Chelsea- Please get rid of DROGBA, Malouda, Ballack, Kalou, Sheva, Sidwell, Wright-Phillip, Anelka, Tel-Ben Haim..
