Champions League getting serious!
***SPOILERS - LOOK AWAY NOW!!!***
Great win by United today. Two away goals have got to equate to a trip to Wembley... Now if Ronaldo, Mourinho, and Real Madrid can work some magic and dump Barca, we'll have a great final!

Real Madrid is peaking at the perfect time...I wouldn't be surprised to see them come away from the first leg on top, especially with Barca being without Iniesta. Barcelona is welcome to all the possession they want as long as Real Madrid's counterattack stays deadly. Should be a terrific match, I only wish I was there to experience the fever myself.

The shit talking has already started...
Real Madrid v Barcelona: Pep Guardiola goaded by Jose Mourinho's jibes over Copa del Rey
Real Madrid v Barcelona: Pep Guardiola goaded by Jose Mourinho's jibes over Copa del Rey
Like a proud bull who has been taunted and prodded beyond endurance, the normally dignified and respectful Pep Guardiola suddenly exploded into a cursing fury at the Bernabeu, unable to take any more of Jose Mourinho’s inflammatory goading.

Both legs of the Spanish semi final will be intense. Barca will be Barca in terms of ball possession, but as touched on earlier in the thread, Real are truly peaking at the right time (CL).
United's dominant performance at Schalke should breed confidence for fans coming back to OT next week. A controlled, patient, counter-attacking strategy will give us the best chance against Barca. RM's recent run makes them a tougher opponent IMO.
