Have some sense of Humour ffs.
The worrying thing is that how many will Real score when you can't just defend at OT?
I mean you were pretty defensive but conceded three goals and escaped a penalty kick. And those goals were created, they just didn't come out of nowhere.
Man Utd needs to attack at OT and that will give Real the chance to score the goal that will take them to semis.
Ferguson will have a long night thinking about next game, you're up to a very big and difficult challenge.
Ruuds goal was huge, without it you'd be out already. Still 90 minutes to play, anything can happen.

Real were on a different level to us tonight.
Amazing to think how close they came to going out.

We can break their defence open, we showed that tonight but we will need to have a little bit of fighting spirit!
Gary was doing more running than David who looked the shadow of himself (wonder if he´s trying to convince Real that he really isn´t a good investment ).
And the midfield will have to go at them, send phil to take care of Zidane at least he won´t be afraid to come near him. Ryan, Ruud and Scholes were solid as were rio and wes.
As for the goals, nothing really to do about the first one, second/third Raul dosen´t really need minutes on the ball to score, close the man down!

Whem Becks plays against superstar teams like Real Madrid or Brazil, it appears to me that sometimes he is more concerend with making friends than kicking arse. Where was the fire from the 'Pool match?
Well done lads. Great battling performance in the end, giving us a (slim) chance to go through at OT.
Real's passing in the middle of the pitch was awesome tonight. Got to admit that there the best in the business at it.
We went down to an incredible goal, which if he meant, I'll wager that he couldn't reproduce in a hundred attempts. As someone mentioned the goal came at a perfect time for them, when we had them more than a bit edgy. That goal just lifted them, and we looked like being overwhelmed, especially after Scholsey's mistake and a second goal - after just 27 mins.
But, boy did they try in the second half.
Haven't seen Giggsy run round like that for 5 years or more - was he trying to impress somebody or something ??
I thought that Butty was outstanding - the balls he was won was terrific.
Thought the Ref. bottled it in the end - did he book 5 or 6 Reds tonight. Second leg will be tough. We've got to csore first.
Did you notice that against £250+million Real we fielded 6 home-grown players, 7 incl JOS.
Great battling reds, even if we go out, we can hold our heads high. No team in Europe would have stood a chance against them tonight - particularly after that first goal.
Come on you Reds. we can do it.

Too much possesion wasted, two soft goals given away (good finishing though) and not enough created. Giggs hardly got a look at the ball in the first half. Carlos didn't allow Becks to turn until the second half, when more crosses started going in. I thought Scholes, Butt and Keane really didn't get hold of the midfield at all giving Zidane in particular way too much respect. Silvestre's distribution was aweful. Basically a very poor first half performance, a little improved in the second and we have a tough second leg. Anyone who says we're out of it is a twat but we need a great performance, not just a good one.
Oh and btw, if anyone wants to know, this is how the 2nd leg is going to be:
we concede after 5 minutes, then chase the game score the first before half time, than the 2nd in the 70th minute and chase that 3rd goal until the final whistle.
I haven't decided how it's gonna end tho.

agreed... 3-1, kinell who knows it could have been 3-2. an no way was the match that close.
Imagine if we had a young Robbo for the home leg, he would've sorted them out!!
all to do, but we're still in it.
we can do it.
we can do it.
Havent had time to read any comments. Just popped in to say this:
We have to hold our hands up and applaud Real Madrid. We worked our socks off tonight but they are a truly awesome side.
They were clinical with their chances whereas we were nervy with ours. They have so many stars in their squad that they've forgotten what nerves are!
Its not over but its going to take the mother of all performances at Old Trafford to turn it round. If we go all guns blazing in search of the 2 goals, they will pick us off. I cant see us keeping them out for 90mins, not while we score 2 goals ourselves.
I have a ticket for the return leg and I'm looking forward to a great encounter. I'm now, however, expecting to progress.
Real Madrid - I applaud you. You are without doubt the cream of Europe. You are what we aspire to become. Well played one and all.

Disappointing performance, but surely we can't play as badly as that in two weeks. We're not out of this yet!
Raul is awesome
FFS, am I the only one that saw that we got hammered in the first half because we LET them, not because they are unbeatable? Remember the first few minutes before their goal, remember how close we came to scoring more goals once we started playing after Ruud's. They didn't outplay us as much as we underplayed them.
My point being that, like our players tonight, we are still giving them way too much respect. If we are required to win any given match 2-0, we know we are capable of that. Why should it be any different against real?
We WILL go through!
