The Great Escape

United 3 CSKA Moscow 3

It wasn't pretty, but it was pretty tense. United managed to eek out a point at OT, playing catch up to CSKA in a sloppy, disorganized Champions League performance.

Goals in the final six minutes from Paul Scholes and Antonio Valencia - albeit via a huge deflection - saved United from a first Champions League home defeat since February 2005, after CSKA Moscow had stunned Old Trafford by roaring into a 3-1 lead.

They'll have to do better against Chelsea at the weekend. While CSKA were out of of their league, it looks like the Blues may the class of the EPL. They're certainly a side that will make you pay if you let your guard down.


Get fit in a hurry boys. Terry big boots and his band of despicable cohorts are up for it. Are you?
