Manchester United secured their third European Championship after a dramatic penalty shoot-out (6-5) over Chelsea after the scores were locked at 1-1 after 30 minutes of extra time.

Nani played a major role in helping Manchester United secure the Champions League crown for 2008.

Nani came on in the 101 minute to replace Wayne Rooney and his fresh legs enabled him to make some darting runs up the right hand side.

Nani was left bloodied and dazed after a head clash not long after he came on the field, however he continued to be a threat late in extra time.

Sir Alex Ferguson’s confidence in him was rewarded when Nani confidently stepped up to the mark and slotted his penalty shot passed Chelsea keeper Petr Cech.

Congratulations to Nani and all the Manchester United squad on winning the Champions League crown.

Nani went on to say that “He (Ronaldo) is a born winner and he’ll help us beat Barcelona and reach the final. All of us have given him encouragement. He’s been so instrumental for us all season and has won so many games for us”.

“We’ll be ready to knock them out at Old Trafford.”

However, on 70 mins Carrick found Nani and he cleverly played the ball through to Rooney who turned outside and found the net off the inside of the far post with a crisp 15-yard shot.
