Champion League 2008 Final

United are kings of Europe!!!

Manchester United have won the UEFA Champions League after a penalty shoot-out victory against Chelsea.

The game itself finished 1-1 with Cristiano Ronaldo grabbing his 42nd goal of a remarkable season on 26 minutes to give United the lead, only to see Frank Lampard level on the half time.Despite the best efforts of both teams neither could force a further breakthrough and the biggest game in European football went to penalties

Edwin van der Sar proved to be the hero for the Red Devils as he pushed away Nicolas Anelka's sudden-death effort to ensure that the trophy is heading back to Old Trafford for the first time in nine years after they last won it on 1998.
