I am sure I died ten times over this morning (well 12:15 am is this morning, technically)...at least my heart stopped like a zillion times. After a mind- numbing final Manchester United emerged as the triumphant kings of Europe, winning their third UCL cup and making it a double this season along with the Premier League victory. To say that it was a dramatic event would be robbing it of its true intensity...it was just the kind of match you have to see live...no matter how many times you see the replay, if you've not lived the moment, it goes futile (though I admit I saw the penalty shootout like 3 times today...and involuntarily shuddered each time). I'm not going to do an in-depth analysis of the match, I'm too new a football fan for that I guess...just some random thoughts.
