The UEFA champions league ended in a befitting manner, the first ever all English final was nothing less than a sensation, the build up for the match was, as predicted extra ordinary, the hype created by the media was justified by the way both team played the game.
The Manchester United Vs Chelsea Final in Moscow last night provided extreme drama. At the end though Manchester United came out to be the ultimate winner but Chelsea too got their oportunities, to stun the rivals, which unofrtunately they could not convert. But the odds were in favour of Manchester United as they were English Premier League Champions and were predicted winners and Chelsea was dubbed as underdog.
The drama at park touched its peak when Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty and the chance to lift the Cup was spoiled by the Chelsea captain John Terry and on sudden death Edwin Van der Sar saved the penalty shoot out from Nicolas Anelka, thus giving the Manchester United the most prestigious title in Club football.
German View:
Being great follower of the game, Germans too were excited for the Champions League final and why they should not be, after all their favourite Micheal Ballack was playing for Chelsea. On every German channel the focus was more or less on Ballack than Chelsea or Manchester United. It appeared as though it was Ballack Vs Manch. United (So how could one player defeat the whole team!!!).
