Manchester United: Road to Moscow + Champions League Final 2008 (2 DVDs)The newly crowned Champions of England are … deservedly … the new Champions of Europe!
The year 2008 was yet another one which will forever glow in the memory of Manchester United fans.
Wembley, Barcelona, Moscow. Manchester United are three times European Champions!
Extra time, injury time, penalties. No sweat! The Red Devils just take them in their stride.
Whenever United win the biggest prize of all, it's always a dramatic, intense affair.
At well past midnight in Moscow, under a dripping sky, Chelsea Captain John Terry's slip – his second biggest! – followed by a goal from Ryan Giggs. Then the big hands of Edwin van der Sar pushed away Nicolas Anelka's shot – SAVE AND WIN! – and the Red Devils were once again crowned the Kings of Europe as Fergie's Fighters won the European Cup for a third time and, fittingly, almost as Destiny had decreed, 50 years from the Munich tragedy. What a emotional sight it was to watch Sir Bobby Charlton
*
, a surviving member of the 1958 Busby Babes, lead the boys up the steps to collect the Champions League Trophy!
And oh, how the Red Army roared as Ryan Giggs
†
and Rio Ferdinand raised the giant trophy aloft again, glimmering in the Moscow rain!

* Sir Bobby Charlton was the Captain of the MU team that won Red Devil’s first European Cup in the 1968 Final at Wembley, ten years after the Munich Air Disaster which killed eight of his MU teammates whose average age was 22. He scored – for his Dear Departed teammates of 1958 – the first and last goal in the 1968 Final.
† Ryan Giggs was the only player that night from the 1999 MU team that won the Red Devils’ second European Cup (then already known as Champions League) in the 1999 Final at Barcelona. He scored the last goal in the 2008 Final. It was Giggs’ 759th appearance for Manchester United, eclipsing the long-held record of 758 appearances set by Sir Bobby Charlton.
