Roma 2 - ManU 1

United lost to AS Roma this midweek. But not such a bad result, specially if you consider that United were a man down for about two-thirds of the game. And we got the vital away goal that we needed. Now a 1-0 victory at Old Trafford would be enough to carry us through to the semis.

Ronaldo once again showed why he is the best player in the world at the moment. Some of his runs in the match were breathtaking especially the one leading to United's goal. Classic counterattacking football . And for all the comments from the Roma players about Ronaldo's diving it was a Roma player who went in to the ref's book for simulation. Totti too was guilty of exaggeration which lead to Scholesy being sent off. What a disgrace!!!

United ,this season, has shown the desire and more importantly the fighting qualities that were missing the last few seasons. United would certainly miss Scholesy for the return leg at Old Trafford . But its time for the squad players to step up .

So come on United lets tear Roma apart at Old Trafford!
