It was a very fast paced football played at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. Possession was pretty much balanced put but it was United who had the best chances of the game during the first 20 minutes of the encounter.
Ronaldo's header following a corner kick almost gave the champions the lead but Julio Cesar was up to the task at that time. So did Giggs' chance on the 26th minute after beating the last man of Inter's defence but his shot just went straight towards Cesar. Cristiano Ronaldo's second free kick attempt also almost gave United the away goal that they desperately needed but the super drive of Roanldo's right foot was saved brilliantly by Cesar yet again.
It was all United from 20 minutes onwards winning every free kick, making every passes count, but they just could not muster that one goal needed.
The second half started very differently from how the first half ended for United. The Red Devils just wasn't that much with pace, probably due to the extremely fast tempo during the first half. Other than that, there's pretty much nothing to report. Rooney came in on the 80th minute, but other than getting an unfair yellow card, that was all he could do for United.
Final Score:
Inter Milan (0) vs Manchester United (0)
