Champions League 2009
Tonight's the night! Barcelona versus Manchester United in the Champions League final. We spoke to some of the snooker players and got their thouhgts on the outcome in Rome...
"Well I’m hoping United will win! I’m going to go with 2-0 to them!!! Rio and Vidic are animals, they'll keep Barca from scoring!!!"
– Daniel Wells, World No. 70 and Paul Hunter Scholar 2007
"United 2-0, Rooney 42nd minute, Ronaldo 85th. Barca will control the game, but Man U's defence will again prove too strong and Barca's weak defence will be broken… I hope!"
– Jack Lisowski, Paul Hunter Scholar 2009
“I’m gonna go Man Utd to win it, purely because Barca are missing three of their back 4! Going forward, Barca are awesome but they struggle against the English teams. United to win 2-1 and Ronney WILL score”.
– Ricky Walden, World No. 20 and Shanghai Masters Champion
I don’t know what the score will be – if I did, then I would have a big bet on it…I think United will win. It will be close though.
– Mark Williams, World No. 15 and two-time world champion
Barca, but you never know. I like the way both teams play”.
– Patrick Einsle – German No.1
I’m thinking 2-2. Barcelona will win on penalties...Ronaldo will miss
– Adam Duffy, Paul Hunter Scholar 2008
“I think United will win 2-1. I reckon if he plays, Tevez will get the winner and then he will leave!”
- Reanne Evans, World Ladies Champion
“I fancy United strongly. They will win 2-1 and Rooney will get the winner!”
- Martin McRudden, newly crowned Irish Champion 2009
2-1 barcelona, messi to man of match performance... maybe have both assists!!
- David Morris, world number 58
There is only one football team for me, Tamworth FC. I not really interested, but I have to go with the English. So, United to win 8-1!”
- David Gilbert, world number 51
Well, Manchester United definitely get the nod from these guys, let us know what you think here...
