I think Bayern will fancy their chances with Scholes and Keane out.

 

[AaronRedDevil]

Why is it that every time there’s a fecking game on I’m busy. Dammit!

I supposed I can try to catch the last 5 mins. Probably no point.

 

[V.O.]

I had no memory at all of Ali Daei playing for Bayern, let alone being on their bench for THAT game. Learn something new every day.

 

[Wedge]

Brown on the bench forgot about that.

Bench looks weak!

 

[The Man Himself]

With Scholes and Keane out, I don't fancy our chances. If we concede early, that will be it.

 

[FrankDrebin]

Been meaning to re-watch this match after all this time.
It'll also be interesting to see how much we really were out-played.

We weren’t. Pretty close game, they had a few more chances if I remember correctly.

how do you know that? the game hasn't started.

 

[Handré1990]

Sorry to ruin your fun, but I have the gift of foresight. I won’t spoil the result for you

 

[jojojo]

This commentator - what's luck got to do with us being on the brink of a treble?

 

[subotai]

Noooooooooooo!

 

[jojojo]

Bloody hell. What a crap way to start, what happened to our wall?

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

FFS. Had to work late, tune in, already 1-0 down!!

 

[ClaytonBlackmoorLeftPeg]

I’ll put this on in about 70 mins.

 

[edcunited1878]

Souness: Silly foul by Pogba to give away the free kick, which led to the early goal. Should be taken out at halftime.

 

[jojojo]

Some nice work by Beckham there.

 

[jojojo]

Close there, nearly a good chance for Cole, just didn't fall right.

 

[subotai]

Don't think we're doing too badly after going down to an early goal. We're getting the ball into the right places just seem to be a bit nervy at the business end. Saying that, Bayern look strong defensively.
A goal before half time though could get to them and potentially loosen the shackles for us up front

 

[Reddevil1978]

Might risk a tenner on a United comeback.

Telephone betting?

 

[Reddevil1978]

Telephone betting?

I tried but the 2g signal on my Matrix slide phone is crap, orange is a terrible network, thinking of switching to One2One.

 

[jojojo]

United not getting enough of a rhythm going to do real damage - maybe inevitable with Keane out, somebody needs to disrupt Bayern's control. A shame Scholes isn't an option tonight.

We looked very wobbly for the first few minutes after they scored, but fairly even in terms of chances after that really. A bit scrappy going forward from both sides though. 45 minutes to fix it.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

Damn, just find out about game, this is first game I saw United play, remember it very well, being shocked about the end of it.
But I will not tell you about it, don't want to spoil it for you.

 

[KranjskaKlobasa]

Why is the gaffer on the bench?

One2One

 

[jojojo]

Why is the gaffer on the bench?

Maybe Fergie doesn't like prowling around in his new suit?

 

[United Hobbit]

Thanks for this got it on now

Was 9 when it happened, a line from the commentator still gives me goosebumps today

 

[V.O.]

By about this time, 8 year old me was asking my dad whether finals had second legs

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Come on, sub Solskjaer on.

Can he score? He always scores.

 

[subotai]

Gotta say I'm impressed with the team - pushing forward against a resilient German side defending a lead, and we've had at least 3 half-decent opportunities, Blomqvist's being the best chance for me. It'll be a big ask to break to such a well organised team with 15 minutes left, but this is far from the luckfest and one sided affair my Scouse mates assured me it would be.

Bayern have done little to worry Schmikes (apart from that bit a few minutes ago). Doubt we can snatch a win though, that would be asking for a miracle end to the season.

 

[Cutch]

Solskjaer coming on. Think he has a goal in him

 

[jojojo]

Bloody hell, that was close. They could have killed us there.

 

[jojojo]

Ole nearly scores with his first touch. Plenty of time left to save this.

 

[LInkash]

Solskjaer coming on. Think he has a goal in him

So late, not a very proactive move.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Think we're fated to win this

 

[Reddevil1978]

This is rubbish, can't watch us lose this I'm switching over to last if the summer wine.

 

[jojojo]

Sheringham should have scored that.

And now Yorke

 

[subotai]

Feeeeckkckckckc what a last 15 mins big big chances for both teams BM with the best of them though - can't see it now though
