07/08 UEFA Champions League Final
Posted by evdomada on May 20, 2008
It’s on again this Thursday morning and unfortunately its an all EPL final: Manchester United versus Chelsea. Personally it’s a let down to see 2 teams from the same domestic competition to meet in the final. Not sure if I speak for many football lovers but I would prefer to see a match between clubs from different competitions.
In any case, the two finalists have proven themselves the best teams to get to the final. It was a long and tiring road to get to Moscow for both Man United and Chelsea and we truly do hope that we see a great game.
Based on form and previous experience, I think that Manchester United should prove a difficult task for Chelsea and will take the title once again. Chelsea’s midfielder stars will need to lift and take control of the middle if they want to “choke” Ronaldo of any goal scoring opportunities. A lot rests on Drogba’s shoulders for Chelsea whereas Manchester has many more options to find the net.
For Australian east coast viewers the coverage commences on SBS at 4am this Thursday morning 22nd May.
Moscow local kick-off time is 20:45 in case you want to work out your locations local time for the match kick off.
