SpongeBobManU

Champions League Semi-finals 1st leg:
Barcelona 0 Man U 0

Sir Alex Ferguson must like Spongebob Squarepants, or else how can you explain the tactics by Man U to absorb, absorb and absorb and then yet even more absorbing all the pressure from Barcelona and then don't even try and attack a Barce defence weakened by the absence of Captain Puyol ?
"Man Utd's new assistaant coach."

So much so even when a penalty was given in the third minute, Ronaldo chose to miss it so that the script could end in a drab 0-0 draw.
"Miss of the season..3rd minute penalty?..not warmed up enough Ronaldo ?"

Rooney was almost invisible, Hargreaves was out of sorts at right-back and Park Ji Sung was as effective as a bowl of Kimchi left out in the Spanish sun.

Wrong tactics methinks..because even a 1-1 draw would have been better as Man U would have an away goal.

So all to play for next week at Old Trafford likewise with the other semifinal with L'pool scoring twice to draw 1-1 with Chelsea (geddit ?).

So Moscow still beckons ?

I dunno. I hope Moscow is still on. The game was about as entertaining as a bottle of ketchup.

I hope they'll do better at Old trafford. It hurts to see your team playing against their natural instintcs.

Kimster,

Hahahaha, though a botlle of ketchup would have more fluidity then Man Utd that night.
