Author: Manchester United came out breathing fire. Wayne Rooney hit for the daily double in this flat out rout. The Wayne Man ripped the twines off a wicked rocket header in the 13th minute.
His mate Gary Neville set this baby up with a deadly cross right into the teeth of AC Milan’s “D”.
Milan keeper Christian Abbiati never had a prayer to stop the shot.
Wayne Rooney once again discovered the back of the net in the 46th minute. Nani took off like a bat outta hell down left side of the pitch. He fired perfect pass to Rooney. Rooney had an easy tap in goal.
Abbiati was hung out to dry.
Paul Scholes was outside the box. The crowd cried out “Shoot.” Scholes faked a shot and then passed to Ji-Sung Park. Ac Milan’s “D” fell for the deception. Park slides a shot from a tight angle into the net in the 59th minute.
Stick a fork in AC Milan.
It is 3-nil Man U.
This baby is over. Darren Fletcher nailed a perfect bounce header past the keeper. Fletcher put it dead center of the goal in the 88th minute.
Rafael made a brilliant long pass into the left side of the box.
This sucker is all over.
Man U destroyed AC Milan 4-0.
It is on to the next round of the Champions League for the mighty men of Old Trafford.
This was a total butt kicking administered by Man U on AC Milan.
The key to the match was Wayne Rooney.
With Rooney in the lineup, Man U is deadly.
Without him, they stink big time.
Real Madrid everyone’s favorite to win the Champions League was knocked out by Lyon on aggregate 2-1.
Lyon and Real Madrid tied one at Real’s house.
So much for the fake Ronaldo taking Real Madrid to the Promise Land.
I am glad.
Cristiano Ronaldo is great in the regular season but when it is a Championship match, he disappears.

AC Milan were totally out of the game, unlike the performance they displayed a couple of weeks ago at San Siro, and as for Rooney he is hard to contain given the form he is in, and this may be will prove to be an important factor in the title race
Rooney was the difference. He is the money player for Man U

Rooney’s performance for United was exemplary . Their task now has been made a great deal easier with Real Madrid being knocked out. Apparently it’ll cost Real in excess of $40 million in lost revenues because of their abrupt departure from the Champions League .
All that money spent by the ‘Galacticos’ has counted for squat. The bloodletting will start once the domestic season is over in Spain. The manager will go and so too will the club President. It’ll be like watching the Texas Chain Saw Massacre but with subtitles . LOL,LOL,LOL !!!
Real tried to buy a title. It didn’t work. The Fake Ronaldo never shows up when he is needed the most.

The Galacticos over the last few years have rarely nurtured in-house talent. Instead they’ve chosen to spend countless millions of dollars to buy their way to success. It may well work domestically but on the European front in terms of the Champions League they’ve been found out and been found wanting.
Once the new entry rules are adopted for gaining entrance into Champions League. A lot of the big money spending teams laden with debt are going to struggle. Especially as one the edicts sought by UEFA is that no club should have a debt to asset ratio of more than 30 %. For clubs like Man U and Real that’ll be tough as the two combined have in excess of $2.5 billion worth collectively.
