man utd. in an easy group.......................
and surely no group of death this time........

Group H looks the trickiest of the lot. Real and Juventus are the favourites no doubts, but i put my money on Zenit to advance into the knockout stages.

Wish Milan too could make it

^^ Same with Benfica, we've just scored David Suazo from Inter for the season, (he found the net 94 times from 255 games with Cagliari Calcio), so I'm hoping he'll bring a bit of luck.

I'm also hoping that Sporting will do well this time around, anything to knock FC Porto off the perch........

Actually, we'll be playing Porto today, (we're at home so maybe things will go well and SLB will hand them a football lesson ) Mind you, they're in 4th spot on the ladder, we're in 9th.......

never mind
i think that england clubs are gonna dominate this time.................

THE RESULTS OF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE MATCH PLAYED ON TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY............
CHELSEA 1-3 A.S.ROMA
chelsea lost to the italian club A.S.ROMA, the same side that manchester united had defeated consecutively on their previous 5 meetings and one being the famous 7-1 victory at Old Trafford last to last season.
Panucci scored 1 and Vucinic fnd past Petr cech twice for A.S.ROMA
the sole goal fro chelsea's side came from john terry....................................

MAN UTD.1-1 CELTIC
manchester united travelled to scotland to play a draw against F.C.CELTIC
McDonald scored for celtic while giggs equalised in the 84th min to save man utd. from the defeat.

ARSENAL 0-0 FENERBACHE
arsenal clearly lacked the much needed zeal in this match and the match ended as a goalless draw,

JUVENTUS 2-0 REAL MADRID
This was the most biggest match of the 2 matchdays ......................
Juventus pulled off another turnover this time against all odds to defeat real madrid to book their place in the knockout stage.............................
and clearly the hero of the day was ALESSANDRO DEL PIERO who scored twice for juventus ..................................
and the best part for juventus was that the match was in bernabeu stadium,real madrid's home ground..............

Del Piero Real I don't understand why these sports channels only telecast only the matches involving the english teams, clearly there was more interest surrounding the Real Madrid v/s Juventus match, but while the ten sports was covering the Man Utd's match Zee sports covered the Arsenal match. I know its done based on the votes received by the fans, but they should atleast not miss out such crucial matches.

i agree with you ninja
the arsenal v/s fenerbache match was totally useless...................
ended in a goalless draw....................
instead real v/s juventus match was full of star players and quite interesting too...............
