SPORTS: Video: Highlights of the UEFA Champions League Final 2009
Yesterday was the UEFA Champians League Final between Manchester United and Barcelona. Barcelona won the match by 2-0.
Ronaldo, nowhere to be seen from since before the break, stepped up and caused hearts to flutter in the 55th minute when he stretched to reach a ball floated into the box; Yaya Toure's flustered clearance was weak and Park Ji-Sung nearly capitalised. Ronaldo was given offside in the 57th minute as United clipped a ball over the top to try and test the second-string Barca defence.
Then, in the 70th minute, Messi scored his first goal against English opposition to seal the European Cup for Barcelona and his superiority on the night over Ronaldo. That he stands at just 5'7" mattered not because he was unmarked when he executed the perfect header, looping the ball back across Edwin Van der Sar's goal to make it 2-0.
