Actually I think United were robbed. Rooney was most certainly targeted and taken out of the game and the sending off was harsh even if Rafael pulled him back deliberately (which he did). That was a great little sub-plot to the game actually as Rafael and Evra got away with murder against Ribery and Robben then Ribery gets his man sent off and Robben scores the winner.
I was amazed at how much the ref let go actually.
United just ran themselves out and once they were down to 10 men just did not have the energy that they had put in in the first half and Bayern's goal was only a matter of time and how ironic was it that the old Beckham/Scholes corner routine should be their downfall?
Still that is them out of everything bar the league now and they are second faves there. The old balance sheet will be looking horrendous and there is no Ronaldo to bring in £80m this year.
"Typical Germans. They all ran towards the referee. They're like that." Well there's nothing like being gracious in the face of defeat where SAF is concerned.
