For manchester United its a sentimental moment...



This victory is a tribute to all the munich air crash victims...




We bow our head towards those great Manchester warrirors....




Chelsea was fighting just to take a cup... we were fighting for keep the pride and give the tribute... We had to win at any cost and we did it...




Interestingly those 5 players who escaped the air crash were present at the stadium...




One again we won it... they made us proud...:flower:

Man Utd 1-1 Chelsea (Man Utd win 6-5 on pens): After long and expensive journeys, the fans finally get to the Luzhniki Stadium

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...nich_pa416.jpg

Some followers of Sir Alex Ferguson's side wear commemorative clothing to remember the players who died in the Munich air disaster

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...o_getty416.jpg

Having both made the Man Utd starting line-up, Nemanja Vidic and Cristiano Ronaldo take part in the pre-match warm up

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...y_getty416.jpg

The players finally emerge from the dressing rooms shortly before 1945 BST as the opening ceremony comes to an end

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...2_getty300.jpg

The action gets under way and it is not long before Ronaldo is sent flying as he looks to find a way through Chelsea's defence

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...y_getty416.jpg

The Red Devils make the better start, with Wayne Rooney among those putting pressure on John Terry and his defensive colleagues

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...a_getty416.jpg

At the other end, Didier Drogba looks to go on a marauding run but Man Utd captain Rio Ferdinand intervenes to thwart him

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...h_getty416.jpg

A scuffle develops midway through the half when Paul Scholes collides with Claude Makelele going for a header - both get booked

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...4_getty416.jpg

The opening goal arrives in the 26th minute when a Scholes cross finds Ronaldo who leaves Michael Essien flat-footed to head home

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...e_getty300.jpg

The goal is the Portuguese's eighth of Man Utd's European campaign and sparks wild celebrations among his team-mates and fans

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...ard2_pa416.jpg

Both sides miss chances before Essien's shot deflects to Frank Lampard who equalises moments before the first half comes to an end

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...n_getty416.jpg

Essien is at the heart of the action again soon after the interval when he charges towards goal only to fire over from 25 yards

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...d_getty416.jpg

Vidic looks impressive in defence and repels a couple of further Chelsea attacks before having to help his captain recover from cramp

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...e_getty416.jpg

Chelsea create the better chances, forcing Ferguson to come off the bench and offer instructions to his players

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...2_getty416.jpg

The Blues almost take the lead in the 78th minute when Drogba's curling effort beats Edwin van der Sar but comes back off the post

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...s_getty416.jpg

Three minutes from time Ryan Giggs replaces Scholes to make his 759th appearance for United, beating Bobby Charlton's record

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...aoff_pa416.jpg

With the match going to extra time, Drogba gets himself sent off after slapping Vidic right in front of the referee

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...2_getty416.jpg

No further goals materialise and the match goes to a penalty shoot-out - Ronaldo is the first to miss before Terry slips to level things up

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...a_getty416.jpg

The teams successfully convert spot-kicks until Nicolas Anelka sees his effort saved by Van der Sar, handing the victory to Man Utd
