both side know exactly how to win the Europe’s most coveted prize.
Raul said, “The two sides are both very well balanced and they will know each other very well, from playing each other in the final two years ago. They are both at the ultimate level. Barcelona are playing very well – that is clear – but Manchester United
have proved against us and in the past that they can compete with whatever team they face. It will be a great final to watch.”

The Red Devils’ veteran midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985, believes that his side has a good chance to emerge victorious against an impressive La Liga side. However, he has demanded a lung-bursting performance from his troops if they are to emerge victorious. Moreover,
Giggs admitted that Barca have many top players in their squad, and the Red Devils will topple should they fail to perform at their best.
Giggs said, “They have top players and if they all click it’s very difficult to beat a team like that, but it’s not impossible. We have very good players who are at the top of their form at the moment. Just like they’ll be trying to hurt us, we’ll be trying
to hurt them.”
United would be looking to avenge their 2009 defeat at the hands of the Catalans giants when the two sides meet at Wembley stadium. However, Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s men will have to put forward one of their best performances of the season to achieve the preset
objective.
