United lose a man w/ 30 mins left @ home, against a very good, but far from invincible Madrid team, capitulate, put up zero resistance and within 10 mins the tie is over.
Conclusion = unlucky & ref to blame.
Chelsea lose a man w/ 75 mins of the game left, away in the Nou Camp against the best side of the last decade, far superior to Madrid, manage to not only hold on, but score 2 goals themselves.
Conclusion = Got lucky & was a total fluke.
Uniteds demise last night shows how good Chelsea were last year, there's more than 1 way to skin a cat!
Poor show from United imo.
No British team beyond the last 16
massive performance from the old trafford crowd last night aswell, deafining atmosphere, wish it was rocking lyk that every week.
It did help although Real Madrid were poor until Modric came on . Maybe it wouldn,t have been 2-1 but i still think Madrid would have got back into it maybe sending it to extra time
As Mourinho said they were poor and he was waiting for them to get going. When Modric came on they certainly got going
Have to agree with a united 'great' (Keane), he should have been sent off, if he didnt know the player was there why didnt he let it come down and run on to it and sprint down the wing. the reason his foot was so dangerously high was he was trying to nick it off Abeloa. He got caught out .
As it is, it doesnt really matter if he knew Arbeloa was there or not , If a ball was played through the middle to Van Persie to sprint clear , on the blindside of the last defender and he turned to clear it and tripped van persie who he hadn't seen he too would be sent off.
I am sorry but I didn't see him or I didn't mean too is not an excuse.
By the way United have been my second team outside my home town of Ipswich since the days of Denis Law.
keanes only spouting this rubbish because he has beef with fergie.
Should Real's goal been disallowed ?- probably not.
Should United have scored at least twice in the first half ? probably
Should they have defended on their 18 yard box after the sending off?-probably not
By the laws of the game should Nani have been sent off ? -Yes, as stated /agreed by all the pundits + Adrian Chiles on ITV
A real shame but that how life is sometimes I'm afraid.
As for Dixon he even had to agree by the laws as written the Referee was not wrong.
But dont worry there are always swings and roundabouts in football
Their backs aren't against the wall very often, but when they are they normally come up with something.
Wasn't a great Madrid side, once Fergie calms down I'm sure he'll have plenty of regrets.
Less ranting, more re-organising. Like teams have to do against MU week in week out.
As for Rio, what a joke. Should have been sent off after the final whistle.
Giggs, class act! Was awesome all night.
Lets hope the rest of season goes well
As for opinion you cant have one as a ref you have to go by the rules.
