Surely after that result Barca now become favourites?
Er why? I will give you evens on Barca to win the tie outright, name your stake
Man U weren't exactly great tonight but Barca created next to nothing despite loads of posession, 2nd leg will be a different game and Barca won't defend as well as United did tonight.
Man U vs Chelsea in the final imo.
I think I'd sooner gets odds from a bookies if they have Barca as the underdogs rather than take evens!
The main objective when you have the first leg at home has to be not to conced an away goal. They've done that part, albeit they would have liked to get the second objective of scoring. Man U have to win the seond leg now, and there isn't a lot between these teams, especially if Ferguson picks the same team for the second leg. (whether they were forced or by choice, plus Puyol is back for Barca)
Can Man U not conced against Barca for 180mins? I dont think they can, and on that basis Man U will have to come up a top performance to win. Don't get me wrong, I think they are very capable of doing it, but if Barca get the first goal I can see them shutting Man U out.
