MANCHESTER UNITED are the champions of Europe for the 3rd time and second under Sir Fergie winning the Champions League finals at Moscow

It went all to the wire, man brilliant performance by both teams, they were neck in neck.

FIRST HALF :
Man U were off to a flyer, dominated it till the 40th minute. A start like this was all MAN U fans expected with a header from Ronaldo in the 26th minute opening the account for MAN U. There were many chances though which could have easily made it 3-0.But it wasn't so, Chelsea scored a rather cheeky goal at the 45th minute, thanks to double deflection from the MAN U defence.
MAN U were strong though Chelsea showed resilience at the end of the first half.

SECOND HALF :
If 1st half went to MAN U , it was Chelsea in the second half. They dominated it completely and were trying to find a winner. Drogba was unlucky to have found the framework beating Van Der Sar by a mile. Man U goalie didn't have very good game until the sudden death where his experience came to play THE VITAL PART of the game.There were a few chance hat went begging for both the teams.
It was 1-1.

EXTRA TIME :
Their were excellent football but the main turning point was the sending off of Drogba at the end of the 2nd extra time.He was sent off after slapping Vidic, who had a perfect day.

PENALTY SHOOTOUT :
A great time, great game to be decided by the shootout.
It was 4-4 in the shootout with Cech saving Ronaldo's shootout and skipper John Terry striking wide of the post.
A very tense moment for Man U fans had Terry scored they would have won.Terry had earlier saved a goal of Giggs in which Cech stepped out.

SUDDEN DEATH :
FIRST - GIGGS scores easily so as KALOU for Chelsea
SECOND - ANDERSON steps in coolly to score the goal while ANELKA'S saved by Van Der Sar.
