Here i expose the feelings of a manchester united fan who is revelling in the joy of his fav team winning the champions league right after winning the EPL....the Chelsea team must be woe begone....especially after they came second to man u in both competitions....I would like to dwell on the penalty shootout that decided the match 6-5 on penalties in man u s favor after they were tied 1-1 a the end of extra time....
After losing drogba near the close of extra time for 'tapping' Nemanja vidic'...the chelsea team were at a disadvantage....The penalty shootout is the perfect example of things going upside down due to the most microscopic of misses....When Cristiano Ronaldo, the Man u talisman had his 3rd shot easily blocked by Cech, i certainly felt it would be blue in Moscow that evening...
But then if this wasnt enough The Chelsea captain John Terry came on to take the deciding penalty for his team and what do you know ,kicked slightly wide of the far post...This led to be costly as van der sar(gk for manu) brilliantly saved the anelka shot...As manu forward Ronaldo gained an enormous reprieve and buried his head in the ground in disbelief Terry was the picture of the contrary and cried on his teammates shoulders...Goes to show just how close it gets in shootouts....
Although it was unfair to chelsea to have the game decided this way..man u ceratinly deserved the victory after dominating in the first half and extra time....
