Man Utd Crashes Out

After a wonderful first half display, Manchester United crashes out of the quarter finals to Bayern Munich this morning AEST.

Stunned by their performance in the first half, well gamble with Darren Gibson (as usual for Sir Alex) and Nani, what a breathless display. Nothing seems to be able to stop him. Credits to Antonio Valencia as well. and Rooney, just being on the field already has its effects on his opponents.

3-0 up with 3 minutes to go half time break before Olic step up once again (he did it in the last minute for the first leg) to score the all important 1st half goal for Bayern Munich. I'm sure if it stood at 3-0 at half time, Man Utd will pack up their defence and there will not be enough time for the Germans to get the important away goals.

You learn from experience I guess, Rafael, too eager to impress and too eager to make an impression, got 2 yellow cards and got sent off. With a man down, there's always chances to exploit the defence. Final score was 3-2 to Man Utd. But Bayern won the first leg 2-1 means they go through on away goals.

Not sure why I'm so attached to this club. Never seen them live before, the only player I saw before was Dwight Yorke when he was in Sydney. But I kinda of feel a bit down. Haha. Silly. But I still feel a bit unjust that after such a wonderful performance, they couldn't finish the Germans off. Well, is only sport and there's always next year. There will be a winner and a loser. By the looks of it, Man Utd will only be the Carling Cup winners for this season. Fingers crossed for the league premiership.
