With Manchester United thrashing Arsenal 4-1 on aggregate in the semi-finals and Barcelona overcoming Chelsea with an away goal, the finals are set on the 27th May 2009 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
The 72,689-capacity stadium has been one of Europe's most impressive sporting venues for over 70 years, hosting the 1960 Olympics and the 1987 IAAF World Championships in Athletics as well as the final of the 1990 FIFA World Cup and those three European Cup finals. Liverpool FC twice became continental champions in Rome, in 1977 and 1984, while Juventus won the 1996 UEFA Champions League at the Olimpico.
I can't wait to see Manchester United thrash Barcelona in the finals and become the first side to ever retain the Champions League title! heheh...
