The Italians won at Cluj, while the British Tied with Girondins de Bordeaux (1-1). Group A, pending the final game.

The 'blues' must win (the tie you would with a series of combinations) to the Romanian Cluj in the final day to be among the 16 best teams in the Champions League.

Also in Group A, where Chelsea is second, Rome took revenge and beat Romania in Cluj, who was able to get the colors (1-2) in the first match of the competition. A doublet of Brighi and another from Totti were more than enough to get into the leadership of the Spalleti, which are relatively easy to enter the quarter finals.

Two ride together

Villarreal and Manchester United reached their first goal in the Champions League: pass the group stage. The same points and two goalless draws without fighting each other to keep them round. The order of the classification set a Dec. 10 in the visit to Old Trafford from Aalborg and the displacement of Pellegrini for the Scottish Celtic Park.

The two teams have sufficed a tie, a 0-0 better than better, sentenced the group to leave. But, in light of the hotbeds of The Madrigal, no one can argue that there was compact, size or Tongo. It was a game of truth in which Villarreal was handled with proficiency in the first half and spent more trouble after the break, undermined by the absence of Marcos Senna, injured. Castellón was grazed the drama in the last 10 minutes, when Joan Capdevila was expelled and Alex Ferguson gave entry to Carlos Tevez. But it was more an environmental impact than a reality.

The coaches rode structures of a closed very difficult to overcome. None of them needed to risk. He did not Ascos a victory, but without letting behind them from within the suit.

He was more aggressive on Manchester United, closer to the Villarreal goal. I would have succeeded if Capdevila, one minute before seeing the red card by nailing blocks bounces off his left knee from Cristiano Ronaldo, had not drawn under the crossbar center Wayne Rooney poisoned by Sebastian Eguren in its attempt to taparlo. Or in a draft of the missile factory CR7 Diego Lopez who diverted his crossbar.

He was thin and secure the goalkeeper El Madrigal after his disastrous blot on Saturday before the Valladolid. Rooney and Ronaldo met with the Galician goalkeeper on several occasions. But neither dropped a whirlwind against his arch, but several isolated downloads, some extremely dangerous. Without excesses.

Behind yellow suffered at the start of the hyperactivity of Nani on the left, especially when he supported the side Patrice Evra. This sector of the camp was the most difficult to cover up for the yellows. Javi Venta, which also received a card soon, permanent aid needed to waterproof the leak.

But the team of Manuel Pellegrini had its moments of brilliance and acceleration towards the goal. Too bad I could not prove more comfortable with the abilities of Polish goalkeeper Tomasz Kuszczak, stirred up too much when he arrived balls in the air. Both Robert Pires and Giuseppe Rossi, on the whole, moved with verve, but were not in place at the time of the auction, despite the great centers who came, especially with some forwards Santiago Cazorla.
