Possession

Did anyone see Rooney's dive? This is from the Guardian's minute-by-minute:


Update: I've now seen a replay. Absolutely a dive, without a doubt. And the penalty itself was hopelessly miskicked, and still flew into the top corner. It was that kind of night, in the end, for United.

@OptaJoe: 16% - Celtic's 16.4% possession tonight is the lowest figure ever recorded by Opta by a winning team in the Champions League. Grab.

I'd be amazed if a team has recorded much lower winning or otherwise

Whoever was doing live text for them must be confused. Only foreigners dive, according to DBF

How old is that Wanyama supposed to be?

He looks a beast.

Didn't see the game last night, but seriously how the eff did Celtic win? Were Barca unlucky or what?

[Gibbo]

The celtic keeper played a big part

[Shaggy]

Wanyama was awesome.

[Fernandinho]

Wanyama was brilliant.

Forrest was too.

Messi was a bit below par.

Celtic had the balls to leave players up the pitch and attacked in numbers, meaning Barca didnt all pile in.

Luck.

Celtic had heart.

[Gibbo]

You played well for Shaktar too.
