The Double Champions (You Better Read This)

Late in coming post. But who cares. A tribute to the red army.

We gathered in Rasta for the match of the year. And it turn out to be a hell of a one.

This comes in the 50th anniversary wake of the Munich disaster and the 10th anniversary since the 1999 triumpth. All three typifies of the spirit in United. Determination, never giving in and bouncing back.

Some pictures to sum up my feelings and the match.

Ronaldo gets things going with a beautiful floating header right into Petr Cechs' corner. His 42nd for the season. 1-0 to United.

The celebrations. Look out for Sara with errr.....

Scholes gets bloodied for United.

And Drogba loses his head in the aeriel challenge against Vidic. This was to be the norm throughout the match.

Lamps scores with a lucky shot. That's the only way they score em anyway.


Ken's balls dropped twice.

Drogba gets pushy-pushy.


And gets reddy-reddy.

Ronaldo misses THAT penalty.

And Terry goes on to slip when it mattered most.



To be honest, I really have a lot of respect for John Terry. I just hope he wins something big with England soon. But not with Chelsea.

Anelka's turn to miss THAT penalty.


The celebrations. I was too busy standing on a chair in Rasta bawling my lungs out to pay any attention during that time.

It was CHAOS in Rasta.



Worthy champions.

The maestro.

Nemanja Vidic. One of the unsung heroes this season. Absolutely brilliant all season and spot on.


Try focusing on the shirt. Not that face.



This match had everything a footie fan could hope for : Penalties, red card, blood, conflicts, near misses, off-the-post, you name it.

Like what Sir Alex said in 1999: "Football, bloody hell.

It's moments like these man. That's football.

To those one angled people who only see football as 22 men chasing after a ball, you don't know what you're missing. Get a life.
