Arsenal vs Man Utd, CHamps League *spoilers*

So, 3-1 to Utd in an easy game

Quote:

Holders Manchester United clinically disposed of Arsenal to reach a second successive Champions League final.
A slip by Kieran Gibbs allowed Ji-Sung Park to slot in for United before Cristiano Ronaldo lashed in a 40-yard free-kick to leave the Gunners stunned.
Ronaldo sidefooted in another after a swift United counter-attack before the visitors had Darren Fletcher harshly red-carded for a foul on Cesc Fabregas.
Robin van Persie scored the resultant penalty but United easily progressed.

Gotta feel so sorry for Darren Fletcher who will miss the final now, it was a superb tackle. Ref was ****e all game though IMO.

im GUTTED for fletcher, he did nothing wrong, he tracked back, covered the run and made a fantastic last ditch tackle. it's not the first time it's happened when the ball obviously moves in another direction after the challenge yet the ref ignores it. **** ref and he's cost fletcher his dream

Jack F · 05-05-2009, 09:04 PM

And Fletcher cant appeal. COmplete bull****. If (for example) Giggs punched Walcott but the ref didnt see it, then UEFA would ban him from the final. So why can Fletcher not appeal? Fingers crossed UEFA will have some common sense.

Also felt a bit sorry for Gibbs.

Yeah it's not the first time it's happened in a Man Utd game *cough* Tottenham *cough*. But in all seriousness refs nowadays need to improve. I think United were good after the first goal which blew the wind out of Arsenals sails. Gotta feel sorry for young Gibbs. Arsenal looked good though until the Park goal and might have had a chance if it wasn't for that.

yeah gibbs was excellent in the first leg and i really felt bad for him but hopefully he can move on from it and fulfill his potential

I'm absoultely gutted as an Arsenal fan, was quitely optimistic before the game. I was out before the first two goals, when I got back in I was gutted. I'm glad I was playing football later and missed the second half. I think Mr. Wenger needs to overhaul the squad starting with the lazy tw*t that is Adebayor

Agreed, even Bendtner has become a more enticing prospect up front
