Match Rewind: Watch Rooney upset the Rossoneri
YOUR MATCH REMINDER
Two of the season-long favourites to win the Champions League met in Manchester for a belter of a last-four encounter. Roared on by the Old Trafford faithful, Gabriel Heinze struck early on but Kaka, in particular, was about to change the course of the two-legged tie.
The classy Brazilian netted two away goals to hand Milan a firm advantage, which forced United, and Rooney, to step up to the plate. The England international levelled from a Paul Scholes pass and then deceived Dida in the closing stages to spark wild celebrations and take a lead to Italy.
As things turned out, Milan went through comfortably, 5-3 on aggregate, after the Reds had used up a lot of energy in coming from behind at Everton during the preceding weekend to virtually seal the Premier League title.
