Pep Guardiola will look to add another trophy to his cabinet as his Manchester City side plays Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League Final.

The Champions League Anthem will be played again at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul on 11 June 2023. It was last played in the 2022-23 UEFA Champions League Semi-final second legs, where Manchester City beat Real Madrid 4-0 in Manchester and Inter Milan trounced city rivals AC Milan 2-0. Listen to Glory Glory Man United (Manchester United Anthems) on the English music album Glory Glory Man United - Manchester United Anthems by Gold Band, only on JioSaavn. But La Liga and the Copa del Rey are still very much on the cards and that is where the focus will be from now until the rest of the season.The Champions League Anthem is played inside the stadium before each match begins, as well as the start of television broadcasts of the games and at the end. Sadly, however, despite an admirable battle to get back into the game, there will be no European trophy this season. Utter dismay.īarça were down but not out. Anthony had Ter Stegen beaten and United led 2-1. Two shots brilliantly blocked by the Barça defence in quick succession. With neither side looking particularly on top of the other, the game was hanging on a knife-edge.Įqual on the night, equal on aggregate, this was tense, nervous viewing for both sets of fans…Ī quarter of an hour to go. United, unrecognisable after going a goal down, sprung back to life. Again a goal changed the momentum of the game.

Just minutes into the second half, a well taken finish from Fred had the sides back level. And also to the mood of their fans, with the 2,000 plus blaugrana supporters making themselves heard above the noise from the home fans at Old Trafford.Įverything was going to plan, with a lot of movement in search of a second goal in the United area and surprisingly little in the way of real threats at the other end. So far so good, and the goal brought new verve into Barça’s play. It wasn’t so much a run-up from Lewandowski as it was a hop, skip and jump, and although David de Gea got a very good hand to the ball, thankfully it wasn’t enough and Barça were 3-2 up on aggregate. Fernandes somewhat unnecessarily pulled Alejandro Balde to the ground and that was a penalty. United had only looked truly on top for the first few minutes, and it took some Ter Stegen magic to stop Bruno Fernandes from scoring.īut the potential game-changer came on the quarter hour.
