Champions League: as the "Manchester" figured out "Schalke"

"Sir Alex" showed an exhibition match, which was attacked and did not give the opponent breathe for a minute. Only occasionally hosts created dangerous moments in front of goal.






But let us all in order. The first blow struck just do not visit, and gelzenkirhentsy. But the experienced Edwin van der Sar easily cope with the problem.



And then on the field was only one team and another player.



"Manchester United" the entire first half trying to break the resistance of the home side's goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.



But he was like a stone wall and parried all flew in front of the goal.















No, of course, "Pluto" is also trying to create something and a couple of chances to score they had. But the players, "Schalke" mostly fall short of the level of skill individulnogo to count. Therefore, all the possibilities that were - and have remained unused.



The first half ended goalless. The second began with what the previous ended. Blow Carrick again in an incredible jump stops Neuer.



Giggs then left her unloved "smears" from the vantage point. But just a few minutes Ryan corrects the situation after a perfect pass from Wayne Rooney. Protection of the "Schalke" is still not there, but Neuer apparently has tired parry.









Two minutes later he doubled the lead Rooney in a similar situation. Only the "Shrek" beat not "between" Neuer and struck with all his might in the near.







The balance of the match both teams finish the peace. "Manchester United" is almost in the final of the Champions League.
