TEVEZ starts in Moscow!

There were rumours suggesting Carlitos was going to start the Champions League final sitting on the bench, but the official lineups are already known and TEVEZ will start up front alongside his friend Wayne ROONEY.

Here are the lineups:

Manchester United:

VAN DER SAR
BROWN, FERDINAND, VIDIC, EVRA
HARGREAVES, SCHOLES, CARRICK, CRISTIANO RONALDO
ROONEY and TEVEZ

Chelsea:

CECH

MAKELELE, BALLACK, LAMPARD, J. COLE, MALOUDA
DROGBA

Oooooh ! One of Carlitos' patented low flying headers just blocked by Cech !

Ouch ! Carlitos with a bare miss with a perfect cross from Rooney !

Extra time. Chelsea looked anonymous in the first half and were lucky to score after 2 rebounds and a slip by VAN DER SAR.

But they played a great second half and should have been given a penalty after FERDINAND's foul on MALOUDA.

Carlitos suffered during the second half because of United's lack of possession. He was unlucky not to score in the first half with those two chances that Johnny described earlier.

Now...as a general comments: WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THAT FIELD?

All the players are falling. Each and everyone of them seem to suffer from what looks like a very slippery surface. A real shame for a game of this importance.

Seba-I think I read somewhere that the field is brand new and just recently put in position. Maybe that's the problem ? In some ways ManU lucky to still be playing. A pretty dismal second period plus the penalty they dodged. So, time for Tevez heroics !!

Seba said...

Yeah, they brought the field from Slovenia (300.000 euros) but they should have known better. It's a disgrace.

DROGBA almost scores from a free-kick.

8 minutes to go till the PK!

Drogba ejected for a ladyslap on Vidic !!

Seba said...

Speaking of heroics, Johnny! What about that trick by Carlitos getting DROGBA a red card by heating up things a little bit?

You can take the boy out of Fuerte Apache but you can't take Fuerte Apache out of the boy!

hahahaha!

Tevez leads off with an effortless goal in penalties !

ManU the champ in a nailbiting penalty shootout !!

Seba said...

Carlitos did his job and opened up a tremendous penalty shootout.

To see him lifting the big ears is a wonderful feeling as it is to see Chelsea and all their overpaid prime donne finishing a season without a single piece of silverware!

Money can't buy you love, Mr. Abramovich!
