What a fantastic finish to the game. It was no surprise that Man U came out flat defensively, as their entire backline was made of substitutes and Milan, through sheer will power of Kaka alone, managed to front a pretty impressive attacking campaign. I thought it would be over once Man U went down 2-1, especially giving up those two away goals, but Scholes played a brilliant ball into Rooney for the equalizer. And then, appropriate for the Theater of Dreams, Rooney conjured up the magic once again and put in a scintillating finisher for the game winning goal. You can watch it here:
Now it's off to Milan for the 2nd game of this tie. Both teams are still very much in it as Milan grabbed two critical away goals, but the onus will be on them to score a goal from the onset. That may cause their defense to become exposed and if there's any team that can capitalize with pace on the counter-attack, it's Manchester United. Should be an impressive game nevertheless.
