Champions league - Tuesdays games

In yesterday champions league games Man United drew nil nil with Real Sociedad and in a game where Robin Van Persie missed a penalty. 

However Man United are still top of their table so in all probabilities they will qualify for the next round.  

But it should have been a much easier game for them, because until last nights game, Real Sociedad had no points. 

So Under David Moyes Man United are still struggling. 

Man City did not have any problems last night and they beat CSKA Moscow  five goals to two and have qualified for the knock out stages.

Champions League - 24/10/13

On Wednesday both Man United and Man City played their Champions League games. 

Man United beat Real Sociedad by a goal to nil and curtesy of an own goal. Although Man United fans will be grateful for the three points, this will not help the fans to get behind David Moyes. As Man United are used to more convincing wins.

Man City beat CSKA Moscow by two goals to one. However the main talking point of this game was the racist chants directed at Man City player Ya Ya Toure. 

Toure would like football governing bodies to take stronger stand against these clubs. Whilst Toure has a valid point getting the governing body to listen and act upon Toure's recommendations will be a challenge in its self. 

But from a footballing point of view both Man United and Man City had a good night and this takes them one step closer to qualifying for the knockout stages.
