VIDEO+Interview | Barcelona - Manchester 0-0

Filed under: Uefa Champions League by: Football Highlights

Barcelona and Manchester United ended in a draw the first leg of the Uefa Champions League semi-finals on Camp Nou. The game started great for the devils, Manchester getting a penalty kick in the 3rd minute. Cristiano Ronaldo took the shot and missed! After that, Barcelona took control of the game, and missed a few good chances. Manchester replied a few times, but something didn’t work in their game tonight :D Ronaldo didn’t shine as we all expected and so the decisive match will be on Old Trafford.

Arsenal lost the first position

Arsenal managed to snatch a draw in the 85th minute on Emirates Stadium yesterday against Middlesbrough(1-1).This point doesn’t help them at all because Mancester Utd won their game away at Derby(0-1).Toure brought the only goal for the gunners and a late one also.kolo_toure.jpg

Both Manchester and Arsenal have 67 points,but Man Utd has a better goal difference and one game behind.IT’S GONNA BE ONE HELL OF A SEASON :)
