Final Score (1st leg): Man Utd 1 – 0 Chelsea
Man Utd scored through in-form Rooney’s goal. Giggs came to the end of the box and gave Rooney a low cross and Rooney along with the help of cross-bar guided the ball to the back of the net! Every Chelsea fan around the world hoped that Torres might score his opener for the club but he was denied twice by the Red Devils’ legend keeper. Man Utd showed up a good performance and there was no doubt about their victory as they consistently kept attacking the Blues. Although sometimes it was the Blues who got the chance but they were unable to convert those chances into the goals! Last 10-15 minutes was mostly controlled by Chelsea leading to constant series of attacks, but they all went in vain.
Man Utd will go to 2nd leg with an important away goal which will be very helpful for them to get them to the next round. Secondly 2nd leg will be at Old Trafford, so Chelsea will be in a lot of pressure there .
Chelsea’s season becomes worse as this competition in their only hope, so they need to tie the knots and get back to the game for their own good!

Man Utd recent hat-trick scorer has been charged by the FA board for his abusive language and misconduct during the celebration of his hat-trick in the match against West Ham! And due to that, the English striker will face a two match ban due to his actions! FA statement read:
"The FA has charged Manchester United's Wayne Rooney for the use of offensive, insulting and/or abusive language. This charge relates to an incident during his side's fixture with West Ham United at the Boleyn Ground on Saturday April 2, 2011. Rooney has until 6pm on April 5 to respond to the charge."
A one-match ban would rule Rooney out of Saturday's home game with Fulham, with a two-match suspension sidelining him for the following weekend's Manchester derby FA Cup semi-final at Wembley. Sanctioning a player for swearing into a camera is understood to be unprecedented in English football.
Although Rooney's hat-trick brought Man Utd back to the game and helped them achieve a crucial win over West Ham which further helped Red Devils to extend their lead to 7-points over Arsenal! But, after completing his treble, the striker uttered an audible expletive into a television camera as he celebrated, and it did not impressed the FA Disciplinary Body!
It is not the first time he performed this type of actions, he also upset-ed England fans during last summer's World Cup when he turned to a television camera and verbally criticised them at the end of the dismal goalless draw with Algeria.

Another setback for the Gunners as they were unable to win this week’s league game against Blackburn and thus they are now 7-points behind the table leaders Man Utd who won their match against West Ham by turning the game in their favor and winning by 4-2!
Arsenal was playing with the absence of their star player and an injury prone Febregas but he was called into the game after the hour mark! Arsenal controlled the game well with a lot of possession and some chances but somehow they were unable to place the ball in the Blackburn’s goal! Although the stakes went high for their win when at 76th minute, Steven got a red card and was sent out immediately! But still than, Gunners were unable to take advantage of that opportunity and Wenger will be very furious with this result as this title race was his only hope for survival, but now they have made it difficult for themselves to win the title! Final Score: 0-0

The Glazers Family, Man Utd owners, have admitted that the Red Devils faced a huge financial loss last season. The loss came in at a staggering £108.9 million! The lack of income from selling players also contributed to the loss for the year ending June 30, 2010 - the previous year the company had recorded £21million profit thanks largely to the £80million sale of Cristiano Ronaldo. Last year's losses also included £30.2million interest on their £220million payment in kind (PIK) loans which have since been paid off.
The highest loss recorded by a Premier League club was Chelsea's £132million in 2005

After having a miserable season, Gunners misery have increased after they drew 2-2 with W.B.A in an thrilling encounter! They held Arsenal to a draw and in return Arsenal were only able to get a single point from the game. Meanwhile Man Utd won their match against Bolton 1-0. They clinched a victory at 88th minute when Berbatov guided the ball to the back of the net and it was enough for the 10-Men Red Devils team as they got 3-points flat from the game and they have increased the gap with Arsenal to 5-points! United were reduced to 10 men on 76 minutes when Jonny Evans saw red for an ugly lunge on Bolton's Stuart Holden. Stuart was taken to hospital straight away after that deadly tackle.
Arsenal actually saved themselves from losing as they were 2 goals down till 70th minute when Arshavin scored the first goal for the Gunners and brought them back to the game and as a result after 8 minutes Van Persie struck an equalizer for the Gunners

UEFA announced the draws for the Champions League quarter-finals today and most debatable match of these fixtures will be off course of Chelsea vs Man Utd! It will be the rematch of Champions League final in Moscow three years ago where Man Utd defeated Chelsea in penalties! Chelsea have never had the European glory and the closest they came was that final where Man Utd clinched the win due to the very last penalty where Terry slipped and was unsuccessful to convert it into goal and it cost Chelsea their first ever UEFA Cup! So this time around they will definitely look to avenge Man Utd for that! But given the current run of the both clubs in this season, Chelsea will have to increase their form and really need to turn the tables cuz Man Utd is in terrific form right now!
Meanwhile, spurs are handed over the nine-time UEFA winners, Madrid, for the quarter-final! It will be a very hard job for them through them and given the current level of Madrid, Redknapp really need to apply his tactic correct and wise and beat Mourinho's Lads! Real Madrid have passed to quarter-final after around six years and this time they want to go all the way to the final

Ferguson have to pay the price for his missconduct by remaining absent from the sideline for 5 matches and £30,000 fine! The Manchester United manager learned of his punishment for comments made about referee Martin Atkinson following United's 2-1 defeat at Chelsea. And now he is equally furious about that decision. Beacuse of this decision, along with the fine, he will have to make his assistant incharge on the sideline for more than month! This will also include the semi-final with Manchester City! This will be a problem for the Red Devils as they are already facing the absence of many players due to injury! Sir alex is yet to decide that whether he should appeal against that ban or not!
Manchester United is playing a very good season as they are leading the Table in premier League, also they have qualified for the quarter finals of UEFA Cup, and they are in semis in FA Cup! So they just need to set their goals right and then its all glory for them this season!
INTER VS BAYERN agg 3-3 (INTER win on away goals)
1st Leg defeated Inter stunned German strugglers as they won the game by 3-2! Their precious two away goals gave them the pass to go to next round! It was expected as Bayern were struggling in their domestic league as well due to their poor form. Late goal from Goran Pandev turned the game around burned any expectations left for the German former champions for any silverware this season! Goals from Mario Gomez and Thomas Muller, following mistakes by goalkeeper Julio Cesar and Lucio, had the hosts in control after Samuel Eto'o had grabbed an early opener - and they should have been far out of sight

Cristiano Who?
So much for Real Madrid winning the Champions League at home... Having spent hundreds of millions recruiting big-name players, Florentino Perez could only watch, helpless, as the merengues crashed out of the Champions League in the first knockout stage for the sixth consecutive year. Meanwhile in England, Arsenal and Manchester United cruised past their opponents winning 5-0 and 4-0 respectively. Nicklas Bendtner – of all people – got an hat trick for the Gunners while United showed once again that the whole is greater than its part – a lesson that Madrid hasn't quite learned yet.

Well folks, it's that time of the year again where teams gear up for the final stretch of their domestic season while also fighting for European glory. With the African cup of Nations taking place in a World Cup year, fixtures around Europe suffered massive changes in order to accommodate all teams. As a result, I've been pretty much unable to follow league games as I did in the beginning of the season. But the Champions League is back, still sticking to the Tuesday/Wednesday combo, so that should be enough for now.
This week, we had the first half of the round of 16's first leg with 8 teams in action which delivered enough drama to make our anticipation of the second half even more palatable. Out of the four games, I only watched two (Manchester United – AC Milan and Arsenal – Porto). Here are my thoughts along with some video highlights

Manchester United faltered in a big way this week as they were crushed by Fulham on Saturday while Chelsea drew against West Ham United. The two results put Chelsea five points ahead of the Red Devils who now have to look behind them as Arsenal, Aston Villa, and Tottenham are closing in. Here are the full results.
Portsmouth – Liverpool: 2-0

It was draws galore last weekend in the Premiership as five games ended in draws. Manchester United missed the opportunity to catch up with Chelsea after the Blues were held to a 3-3 draw as United was defeated by Aston Villa. Arsenal jumped back in the title race by beating Liverpool at Anfield and at this point you have to wonder how much longer Benitez will stay in charge of the sinking club. Tottenham also lost at home to promoted-side Wolves. All in all, not a good weekend for the big guns who will try to make up for it in midweek.
Stoke City – Wigan: 2-2
