WHEN DISCIPLINE WAS MOST NEEDED.

During the champion league final between MANCHESTER UNITED and CHELSEA. As both the managers decided to go into penalty shootout, as both clubs had very good goalkeepers of world fame and bags of experience as well. The result would have been quite diffrent had not Drogba not got his marching orders after his shameful act of slapping Videk. Which made CHELSEA short of a penalty striker. John Terry was not on the list of five penalty takers. He came in the place of Drogba. It was very costly as John Terry sliped and the ball flew wide of the post.
The lesson to be learnt by all footballers is to be disciplined till the refree blows the final whistle.
In the 1999 champion final between MANCHESTER UNITED and BAYERN MUNICH in which Manchester united won by a score of 2-1. In that final Paul Scholes and Roy Keane were suspended for that match . this gave Scholes a chance to play in a final and win a medal.
