FOOTBALL: CHAMPIONS LEAGUE WEEK 2 DAY 1

I was away during Week 1 and was too tired to watch any matches on day 2. Now, I am ready as ever, eventhough I have a gigantic RIBA presentation tomorrow morning.

Ajax Vs. Arsenal
Manchester United Vs. Benfica

Remember how Ajax had been unlucky for the past two seasons by reaching quite far and to lose with last minute or even injury time goals? Hopefully, this season will smile on them. Benfica, reminds us of the old days. The 1968 European Cup final rematch with revenge in Benfica's minds after their defeat then to Bobby Charlton, George Best and team. I will try to wake up at least during the 2nd half to catch the Old Trafford match! It's historic but not anticipated to be a mouth watering encounter.

With both Arsenal and Manchester United having alot of players in their injury lists, this is the best time for Ajax and Benfica to kill them off. Still, both of them are not the best clubs in England for the past decade for nothing.
