00:00As the head of the two lines, England's leading candidates for captaincy, Fabio Capello is here, is likely to choose
00:09his on-the-field leader from John Terry and Rio Ferdinand.
00:17Time for these two familiar foes.
00:19Successful. Three years ago, some hockey referee Lumos Michel allowed a borderline Liverpool goal that knocked Chelsea out in the
00:29semi-finals.
00:30He is not exactly their fairy godmother, but he could so easily be the headline-maker before the 90s out.
00:41Nine English internationals on the field and kick off for the all-English final.
00:49Made the best team win.
00:51The 50-poil in the air, and he looked to get one or two diagonals in.
00:56And it means that Cristiano Ronaldo here plays against the makeshift right-back, Michael Essia, the midfield player by Trey,
01:02Ronaldo.
01:05Is this his line?
01:07A bit too close to Pekicek.
01:11The right-orige strip, which the Azusa's scientists approved, makes him look bigger.
01:18So, on-rushing forwards.
01:20Ronaldo.
01:22Gets it back from Rooney.
01:24Looks familiar.
01:25Eberra's got on ahead of Ronaldo.
01:33Skulls.
01:51That's the type of thrust and purpose that United need from the Portuguese fire.
02:00Eberra's got space in behind.
02:02Eberra's got space in behind.
02:02Woo!
02:04Now they're tagged by McAlealy.
02:10I think Ronaldo's started the game well and by Ashley Cole.
02:16Skulls came across.
02:18There's a plus there with McAlealy which Chelsea are very unhappy about.
02:22And Rooney has just pushed a player there, he's pushed Ashley Carr out of the way.
02:28He's getting a little heated now.
02:30Malouna, Lapar, good advantage play.
02:32Oh, and the header was very dangerous by Vidic, with Van der Sarre committed.
02:36And it is only a corner.
02:37Well, Vidic's in well, because if you're not sure, you have to be stressed and clear that ball.
02:45He'll never have fallen.
02:53It's goals.
02:55Neatly worked.
02:57Clipped it towards Ronaldo!
03:00Manchester United strike first, and get who?
03:06Cristiano Ronaldo's first ever goal against Chelsea is his 42nd of this remarkable season.
03:15And the champions of England are closing in on the European title.
03:20So, Essien can't deal with him.
03:25We've seen Brown already putting the balls in the box before that.
03:28He got into an advanced position there.
03:31Struck it in.
03:33Left-footed.
03:34And Ronaldo coming in on the opposite flank.
03:37Must be absolutely for sure something United has spoken about.
03:41There's a tactic.
03:42And he got the jump on Essien.
03:47Chelsea, all party tricks.
03:50Moving off.
03:51Hard breeze.
03:52Tipped in towards Didier Droglin.
03:53Now he's still in the yard across the front of the goal.
03:55Balak's there!
03:55Terrific save by Van der Sarre.
03:57And it's Paul Scholes who heads behind.
04:00And suddenly, out of the blue, Chelsea all must equalise through Michael Balak.
04:04Thank you for some ball by Lampard.
04:07And Droglin did so well to get that ball back across the goal.
04:10But what amazing reactions from the Dutchman.
04:13And Ferdinando actually headed here.
04:15They're not sure if they have Ronaldo again.
04:17And Essien has some scabry to do.
04:19What a pass from Rooney.
04:20Ronaldo's only cross.
04:21Teres!
04:22Good stop by Cech.
04:23Way forward, Carrick!
04:25And a fantastic fade by Petr Cech.
04:29Wonderful Manchester United counter-attack.
04:32Matched only by the brilliance of Petr Cech.
04:35Fantastic ball, Rooney.
04:37Right across the park.
04:38It was Carvalho that let Chelsea down.
04:41Way forward, Tevez.
04:45Oh, Ronaldo.
04:46He's looking very perky, isn't he?
04:49He'll come up with something new.
04:52More Manchester United to think about in the second period.
04:57I see him following, Ronaldo deep in...
04:59Actually, Cole has got Obi-Han here.
05:01He's stretching Les Brown here.
05:03There was shoulder-to-shoulder there.
05:05Cole looking for a decision.
05:07Nothing doing against Brown.
05:08Brown is...
05:10A quiet superstar,
05:13whereas Brown might just be the only man in the match to United.
05:17Driven it low towards Carlos Tevez.
05:19Oh, he made some kind of contact, but not enough.
05:22But what a chance to double Manchester United's lead.
05:27Came and went in an instant.
05:29A much quicker attack by United.
05:32Tevez might have had two.
05:36Solid, the load it to Lampard.
05:38Tell us search past Ferdinand.
05:39Body checks in on the edge of the penalty area.
05:42And the referee gives a free kick.
05:44And a yellow card for Rio Ferdinand.
05:51It's Lampard towards the last minute of the first half.
05:53Bye.
05:55And they got it up and down, but not quite quickly enough.
06:00The man who scored twice against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.
06:04Last minute by Ferdinand.
06:06No, no, no, this far is Lampard.
06:07They see it.
06:09He's walking his area of the field.
06:10It'll come for Lampard and Chelsea are level!
06:15It's Frank Lampard!
06:21The hero of the semi-final.
06:24Equalises in the final.
06:27There were tears on that occasion after the penalty area against Liverpool.
06:32Relief for Chelsea now.
06:35Well, some goals are scored fortuitously.
06:38But you have to say Lampard was doing well to follow up.
06:40Two lucky deflections.
06:43And Lampard there first to the ball at his best when he's getting into those goal-scoring areas.
06:48One thing at a time.
06:51It's late on Ronaldo and Kane for the lane.
06:54Carvalho has been the other carded very quickly.
07:02What on earth is he getting involved for?
07:06For the yellow cup.
07:07And a hard time in the game of games.
07:10It's Chelsea 1, Manchester United 1.
07:13The Chelsea dressing room is a much longer walk.
07:16Ronaldo.
07:17Ronaldo.
07:18Ah!
07:19G region 1, Manchester United 2.
07:23Ronaldo.
07:26No!
07:28No!
07:29Do the next few points throw.
07:32Roca appeals to the assistant about the throw-in, but he's still...
07:39And now they're taking the left-hand ball, they're going to shoot some of them.
07:47Hey, you guys are amazing!
07:50Doubling up for Coppedesci and trying to give him some protection,
07:53but Everett has been slipped in behind Chelsea here,
07:55and Everett crosses a goal on it just a little bit too long,
07:58and hope too high for Owen Hargraves.
08:00But they were undone there, Chelsea.
08:03Move instigated by a brilliant play by Ronaldo.
08:06Everett did well.
08:08Here's Michael Essien, made space for the shot.
08:13They seemed to do the difficult bit.
08:15Of course, he checked onto his unfavoured left foot,
08:18but he had time there to steady himself.
08:21Super pass inside the Ronaldo,
08:24who chases back with great team responsibility,
08:27but Essien was stronger and wasteful.
08:30Move in.
08:33Into Ashley Cole.
08:35Dangerous cross.
08:36Terrific defending.
08:39And the Manjo Vidic facing gaping goal.
08:44Somehow managed to turn it wider.
08:46All right, trying to do just that.
08:48It's a walking shot.
08:50It's always flying wide of van der Sar's goal.
08:53Powerfully struck by Michael Ballard.
08:55Better for Chelsea this.
08:57Loads of space.
08:58He got the other side of Scholes.
09:00With Hargraves.
09:01Ronaldo.
09:04Oh!
09:05Oh!
09:07Oh!
09:08Oh!
09:08Oh!
09:09Oh!
09:11Oh!
09:30He just got it away from Essien this time.
09:36Now he can run at Joe Cole.
09:37Still Cristiano Ronaldo.
09:39Cole might actually get a foot on the ball and it's a corner kick.
09:42Seeming to be caught in two minds.
09:44Cole is absolutely certain it went straight out for a goal kick.
09:48He's been quiet this hard for Ronaldo and I was just about to suggest that he might go...
09:54Ronaldo.
09:56Daily fouled by Carballo.
10:00As he crossed.
10:02Frogball slips as he tries to get to it and it's forward for Balloude now as he clipped there.
10:06Ferdinand tells him to get to his feet.
10:07Don't think Río Ferdinand made any contact with the ball.
10:12Nothing doing.
10:14Not in the header.
10:15Oh, Nashie Cole.
10:16He's back on his feet.
10:17John Park goes for goal!
10:18Needs the post!
10:20Brilliant effort by the man who won the FA Cup final a year ago.
10:27Well, he's been waiting patiently for a touch of genius.
10:33Carlos Tevez.
10:36He's a roster.
10:38A wide.
10:44Great power.
10:47Behind that goal.
10:50Rinaldo.
10:50Rinaldo.
10:51Crossed in over Rooney and Ashley Cole had the confidence to let it run.
10:55And it goes for a goal kick.
10:57And I think we're heading for 30 more this time.
11:00He had the confidence.
11:01I just wondered if he knew where Rinaldo was for sure coming in behind him.
11:05That with by Carvalho.
11:07But the big night out in Moscow will go on and on and on.
11:12Ninety minutes play.
11:13Nothing to separate.
11:15Manchester United.
11:16It's a time 40 years ago with Carrick.
11:21Shedded through two gigs.
11:23And now Tevez.
11:23And now Rooney.
11:24And Tevez is there.
11:25The ball ran clear through to the break for Hanson Penacek.
11:34And he chased him, tracked him.
11:36And he's right out of the way.
11:38And then Rooney.
11:39Tucked in to Ashley Cole.
11:40He's caught the mud.
11:41There he's got away from Hargreeze.
11:42Played back by Kurt Balak.
11:44Frank Lampard!
11:45And for the second time, Chelsea are denied by the woodwork.
11:52First run bar, now Lampard.
11:54It just won't go in.
11:56What brilliant disguise by Balak.
11:59And then a clever cunning turn by Lampard.
12:05Smuddle the ball back to Cristiano Ronaldo.
12:08It's towards Tevez.
12:09Turned away by Terry.
12:12Giggs gets there, comes through.
12:13Got to watch that one.
12:15And Evra might just get to it ahead of Enelka.
12:17And here's Patrick Severe.
12:18He's got into the penalty area and pulled it back.
12:20Oh!
12:21And somehow Ryan Giggs was denied the dream goal.
12:24And that somehow is called John Terry.
12:28Remarkable defending.
12:30Absolutely magnificent.
12:31But what remarkable energy and burst by Evra.
12:35Terrific player.
12:36The composure to pass that ball back and invite the goal.
12:42The fairytales almost came true.
12:44In the centre.
12:45It's Carlos Tevez.
12:47And he went for glory when he had Ronaldo.
12:49The end of the first period.
12:54He's almost approved.
12:55Anelka.
12:56Not a huge challenge from Vinic.
12:59He got the ball but he got some of Anelka too.
13:02And he's got a...
13:04It's dropped by this time.
13:08It's wide on the mark.
13:12Here's the angry with Cristiano Ronaldo.
13:14Not a smart thing to do.
13:17Run away from Anelka.
13:18There he is.
13:19You can't raise your hands in those situations.
13:21It's ridiculous.
13:24Whatever grievance they've got here.
13:28Look at Carvalho pushing Tevez.
13:30It's crazy.
13:31And a red card for Didier Drobart for the slap.
13:38He looks mystified.
13:43Manchester United have the extra man.
13:45Right kicks his claws.
13:47Now he's got some space.
13:48Terrific defending by Ashley Cole.
13:50And he's caught one in the face as a result.
13:53Lampard's limping badly at this moment in time.
13:55And you just wonder, Clive, if he goes to penalties.
13:58If people...
13:59Ronaldo.
14:01Clipped in towards Tevez.
14:03It's got to be.
14:04Shades of that last second winner at Blackburn the other week from Tevez there.
14:11Penalties it will be.
14:13The season which started back in August with a shootout between these two.
14:17Will end here in May.
14:18And if they're still level after that, it goes to sudden death.
14:24Tevez scores for Manchester United.
14:29First block to them.
14:31Kapala.
14:331-1.
14:35Did anybody really think he was going to miss?
14:41Yes.
14:44Three taken.
14:45Three successes.
14:50Now here's an interesting...
14:53Easy.
14:56Made it look easy anyway.
14:57Made it look easy anyway.
15:02Saved it!
15:05Some things are just meant to be.
15:08The man who has been unable to stop scoring all season.
15:13Stop halfway through his run-up.
15:15And Petr Cech kept him out.
15:23Oh!
15:23And van der Sar got a hand to it.
15:26But Chelsea are in charge.
15:28They lead by three goals to two in the shootout.
15:31Lampard has scored on the greens against Cech.
15:33Oh!
15:35Just.
15:36Just.
15:40Next up for Chelsea.
15:41Ashley Cole.
15:47Point.
15:49Oh!
15:49And van der Sar got hands on that too.
15:52But it riddled into the net.
15:55And Chelsea are on the brink.
16:02Oh!
16:03Again the goalkeeper got close.
16:05But Nani score.
16:08And it will be left to John Terry.
16:11Give them the trophy.
16:13Oh!
16:14He's missed it!
16:15He's missed it!
16:19I think he clipped the outside of the post on its way past.
16:23Ronaldo is reprieved.
16:24And the shootout will go on, it's 4-all.
16:30Oh, and he just drove on almost through Petr Cech.
16:34And Manchester United now are on the verge.
16:39Just a moment, Kalou.
16:42Calmly done.
16:44It's 5-all in the shootout.
16:46And we are now down the place.
16:49Giggs screws it into the bottom corner.
16:53And for the second time, Max Nelka.
16:57Van der Sarge saved it.
17:00United again.
17:04The newly crowned champions of England are the new champions of Europe.
17:112008 is another Manchester United vintage year.
17:17And Cristiano Ronaldo breaks down in tears.
17:22It's Nikola Nelka, who is the victim of the drama.
17:28It is Edwin van der Sar, who is the hero of the moment.
17:34And the red flag really will be flying in the Russian capital tonight.
17:39Wembley, Barcelona, Moscow.
17:41Manchester United.
17:46Kings of Europe.
