Got back from Moscow Yesterday, Great Atmosphere, No Trouble and a brilliant game to watch.
Could be a biased view but United were the deserving team. The Champion's League isn't just about the final in my opinion. United have been by far the better team throughout the whole competition!
United were eaisly the best in the first half and had most of the possession with more shots and more shots on target. Second half Chelsea dominated with more chances, although scoreboard in the ground had it down as more United possesion. In extra time, I think United were the better team, more clear cut chances (Tevez, Giggs, Carrick etc), although almost had a heart attack when Lampard hit the bar!!!. Penalties is not just luck as some people say, it's a skill. Edwin should have saved Cole's easily, and Man U's penaltys were by far the better taken ones. Anderson's in particular was brill, 19 Years old, barely 5mins on the pitch and has the onions to put it down the middle against Cech. Giggs' was calm and collective, couldn't expect anything less from someone with his experience. So glad Terry missed before that, never had such a bigh relief in my life! Everyone in the ground could see Anelka has his head down walking to the penalty spot, Electric Atomosphere in the Stands!!! Everyone went crazy when Edwin saved it! What a legend!
Trophy parade was quality, was about 5 meters away from them!
Was a fantastic experience. Bring on 2008/09!
