25 mins - Good from Welbeck as
he races away, his shot is blocked
by Ramos. Nice touch from RVP to
set him away.
24 mins - Ronaldo receives a warm welcome

29 mins - Di Maria wins a corner
as he finds space on the left -
Rafael comes across to block.
28 mins - A chance for Ronaldo as
he is found over the top -
perhaps he should have taken the ball first time, he chose to
control and his shot was blocked.

32 mins - Dortmund have taken
the lead in Germany against
Shakhtar, a Santana header from
a corner. 3-2 on aggregate to
the Germans.
31 mins - Now at the other end an Arbeloa cross is taken well by
Higuain and Carrick blocks his low
cross out for a corner. Ronaldo
was lurking.

34 mins - A double save from
Lopez! RVP's fierce effort is
parried unconvincingly but the
keeper does well to get up and
get something on Welbeck's follow
up. Corner.
33 mins - Real have the ball in
the net but the flag is up -
Ramos climbs above RVP and
Higuain finishes off. Foul given for
an arm in the striker's head but
that is a very European decision, if you get me.

37 mins - Arbeloa gets carded for a late tackle on Evra after a
poor touch. High and late.
36 mins - Rafael goes down
looking for a penalty he was
never going to get as Ramos
stayed tight to him inside Real's area.

42 mins - Di Maria heads straight
down the tunnel and Kaka is
readying himself.
41 mins - Di Maria needs some
treatment as United's fans
encourage Mourinho to sit down.

44 mins - Here he comes... to confirm Di Maria off, Kaka on.
43 mins - A lull in proceedings.
Kaka still not on.

45 mins - Mourinho has seen
enough - he's gone down the
tunnel already when there is still
a minute of added time to play.

45 mins -HALF TIME - and there is the whistle. Manchester United
the more threatening, Real and
Ronaldo yet to burst to life. A 0-0
draw is good enough for United
don't forget. Expect fireworks in
the second period.

"So
far, so good for Manchester
United. Sir Alex Ferguson's side
have restricted Real Madrid to
hardly any chances and have looked the more likely side to
open the scoring. Cristiano
Ronaldo received a hero's
welcome from all 76,000
supporters here but he had a
very quiet 45 minutes as United sat deep and denied the
Portuguese forward space in the
final third."

46 mins - We begin again. The
first half was intriguing, the
second should be explosive....

47 mins - Giggs does well to keep
pace with Ronaldo as the winger
gets down the left. He looks for
Kaka but Vidic covers.

48 mins - GOAL A Ramos own goal!

Sergio Ramos (48') (Own Goal)

57 mins - Nani is high and clumsy
but he's watching the ball and
that is in no way a red card. Nani
can't believe it and this game
might well have been significantly
altered by an utterly incompetent Turkish referee.
56 mins - It's a red! Oh my word. That is a horror show.
Fergie is going ballistic and well he
might. That is inexplicable.

59 mins - Modric is on for Arbeloa as Fergie whips the
crowd into a frenzy from the
touchline.
58 mins - The rest of United's
players must keep their heads
here. They were as shocked as everyone when the card came
out. This is going to be a tough
last half hour now.
