Today marks the 10th anniversary of Manchester United’s 7-1 destruction of AS Roma during their Champions League quarter-final second leg tie at Old Trafford in April 2007.
United came into the game 2-1 down after the first leg but would ultimately finish 8-3 winners on aggregate thanks to a flurry of goals from Michael Carrick, Alan Smith, Wayne Rooney, Ronaldo and Evra.
After the humiliating defeat one Lazio fan wrote to Sir.Alex Ferguson thanking him for the pleasure of seeing his most bitter rivals crash out of Europe’s premier competition so tragically.
