Real Madrid VS Manchester United



The 27-year-old takes on his former side in the first leg at the Santiago Bernabeu, where Sir Alex Ferguson and Jose Mourinho renew old rivalries in a heavyweight last-16 encounter

Fashions and fortunes may fluctuate, but whenever these football clubs meet the world stops to watch.
Real Madrid versus Manchester United; Jose Mourinho versus Sir Alex Ferguson; Cristiano Ronaldo versus Wayne Rooney: it is a Champions League encounter that has captured the imagination in every corner of the planet. "This is the match the world wants to see," Mourinho said recently. "The only shame is that it is not the final."
A myriad of subplots threaten to obscure the bigger picture but it must not be forgotten that these are two clubs longing to lift another European Cup, battling to emerge from the shadow in which the brilliance of Barcelona has placed them in recent times.
