Tevez's diving header sets table for tasty semi
How good are United? Good enough to beat Roma 3-0 on aggregate — with their second team. To be fair they didn't lineup their reserves, but they did field a very conservative, defensive side. Even so, Tevez’s 70th-minute strike confirmed their place in the last four where they will face Frank Rijkaard's Spanish dancers.
Warming the bench were Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Scholes. That's a pricey seat, but we'll need the lads healthy and angry to properly demolish Arsenal this Sunday.
Giggsy got his 100th Champions League cap, while Rio limped off after preventing an area disaster, 3 stitches to the foot his reward.
The other semi sees our old friends Chelsea squaring off against the Scousers. Pa-leeeese. If this turns into another Ambien moment we'll know who to blame: Jose Mourinho - for not being there!
The dream: United/Liverpool. The nightmare: the Champions League folds because the Chelsea/Liverpool match gives off brain-numbing gamma rays that eventually destroy the earth.
But United still wins Europe.
