Costly miss?


Will it be a costly miss? Will United make it to Moscow for the European Champions League final? We will find out next week!
Important week for the football club. Playing Chelsea this Saturday in EPL (title decider?), and then Barca again at home for the ECL final spot.

What I saw in ChengDu...

life is tough...
looks yummy, but it really doesn't taste that good...

the Sheraton hotel...


Yes, life is tough...


United Cruise to Semi-Final of ECL

Woke up at 3:30am in Chengdu Sheraton hotel to watch United match against Roma.


Carlos Tevez capped an industrious display with the only goal to steer Manchester United into the semi-finals of the Champions League for a second successive season.



And you have to hear the roar that greeted Gary Neville in the 81st minute, his first run out for a year after ankle injury and he took the armband.


Next is Barcelona! And then Moscow!

Italian Job

Ronaldo (36th goal of the season!) and Rooney scored to set United one foot into the European Champions League semi-final place! Unless a catastrophe Old Trafford performance, United should be all set to face Barcelona in the semi-final!
Even Park JS starts for United, and he setup the second goal!
