Ferguson is so funny sometimes...
BBC Sport - Football - Sir Alex Ferguson blames 'typical Germans' for red card
BBC Sport - Football - Sir Alex Ferguson blames 'typical Germans' for red card
Sir Alex Ferguson was angered by the behaviour of Bayern Munich's players as Manchester United crashed out of the Champions League on away goals.
Ferguson felt referee Nicola Rizzoli was pressured into showing United defender Rafael his second yellow card.
Bayern got the decisive goal as United played the last 40 minutes with 10 men.
Ferguson said: "The young boy showed a bit of inexperience but they got him sent off, everyone sprinted towards the referee - typical Germans."
United led 3-1 on the night and 4-3 on aggregate when Rafael was sent off for tugging back Franck Ribery, and Bayern then went on to win a pulsating tie on away goals thanks to Arjen Robben's spectacular volley.
Ferguson insisted that the dismissal changed the course of the game, saying: "There is no doubt about it. They were never getting through that tie, with 11 men we had no problem."
And asked later whether he stood by his contention that the Bayern players had been wrong to protest about Rafael's challenge on Ribery, Ferguson confirmed: "Yes."

CoB - You hate United a lot huh? 
I am only mad at Ferguson for dumping Ruud van Nistelrooy. If he had been able to spend more time paired with Rooney...
I just hope United bears down and closes out with wins. That's our only chance at retaining the PL.

At least EUFA and Platini will be happy, they hate seeing English teams do well.
Tom Henning Overebo is probably still collecting a check from Platini for last year's job well done in the Chelsea/Barca match.
Platini/Barca/Ovrebo =
