All-English final in Moscow
Again, my post today will be brief. When you spend most of the day working on two essays, not a lot of things happen, unfortunately.
So, after a nervy game, Chelsea halted Liverpool’s bid to reach another UCL final by beating them 3-2 at Stamford Bridge. This sets up a date with Manchester United in May. So, two English teams will battle it out for the UCL trophy. It should be a terrific game because one of these teams will have been crowned Premier League champions by then, and the other will be keen to bring home some silverware to avoid a trophy-less season. The race for the EPL crown is wide open after Manchester United drew two games and lost to Chelsea last Saturday.
As United supporter, I want Man U to win both titles and consign Chelsea to a season where they couldn’t win a single trophy. As someone more in tune with reality, I realize this will be difficult to pull off. United need to play their best football of the season to bring home both titles. I know they can do it but I don’t want to count my chickens before they hatch. It’s just that recent performances have not been very encouraging. That win against Barca should boost confidence however and hopefully, Ronaldo still has three more great days left in him.
I’ll be keeping my fingers and toes crossed. Back to writing essays then!
Its great to be in the European Cup final after so long and after coming this far it will be heart breaking not to win it. We have a good squad to win both the titles and I’m optimist about that. We have had some rough games lately and results aren’t coming our way easily. But just 3 more games in the season, 2 in the league and one the cup final, so everyone is charged up for it and with Rooney back, and I hope no more injuries haunt us, we should do the double finally.
