Back in the European Champions League final for the second straight year, Manchester United wants to add to titles it won in 1968, 1999 and last year.
Manchester United will go to Rome to defend their Champions League trophy after beating Arsenal 3-1 at the Emirates. Two early goals from Park Ji-Sung and Ronaldo killed the tie off in the first half, before Ronaldo sealed the win and Robin van Persie netted a consolation.
World player of the year Cristiano Ronaldo scored two goals and set up another. Park Ji-sung also scored for Manchester United, which won the home-and-home, total-goals series on 4-1 aggregate and will play in the May 27 final at Rome against Chelsea or Barcelona.
Park scored in the eighth minute following a slip by defender Kieran Gibbs, who tried to intercept Ronaldo’s cross. Ronaldo made it 2-0 three minutes later with a swerving 35-yard free kick that beat goalkeeper Manuel Almunia to the near post.
