In mid-October Manchester United were cruising into the second round, but two defeats later and they have left themselves needing a draw in the final group match at home to Benfica.
======================
Hopefully Benfica can beat United and thrown them out of the league/cup. I would be so happy and that would slightly ease the pain of the Ronaldo penalty dive.
Prediction, 1-2 Benfica :)
Benfica will certainly give them a game, just wonder if they can get a win out of this game. Man Utd are looking a strong side at home, it'll be an uphill challenge for Benfica I think.
1-0 to Man Utd.(sorry):rolleyes:

Yeeeeeeesssss
Come on Benfica, although a long way to go now, and I fear United will be able to nick a point...

Don't think manu will throw it away from here, in fact I can't see them not winning the match, but you never know...

after conceding a goal Man. Utd. finally woke up.
They should have been playing like this from the beginning. Although I think it may end up a tie

That was a nice goal by Saha. Ole is coming on soon... maybe there will be a fourth goal!
Havn't seen Man Utd go this far since when?
Made me giggle when I saw an update come up saying Benfica were a goal ahead :P
at least we finally woke up once they were ahead. Dominated the second half. I made a thread somewhere, why not use that? :p
Still got sour grapes bb? ;)

it got boring when United werent losing anymore. It made me realise how much im dreading Saturday. Benfica werent up to much in the second half. It was too much of the long ball.
