big game at manchester city stadium

100,000 gers fans have gone down, so if they get up it will be a wild night!!!!!

i give Gers a huge chance to win this, Zenit St petersburg are favs, and probably deserve to be after there semi-final win against tournament favs bayern Munich.

Walter Smith, and it may just be me, but i believe he is a very under-rated manager, all his teams are successful.

Zenit St Petersburg have there main goal scorer out for the match which isnt the best against a team that builds itself around defence and counter attacks.

0-0 half time

zenit as expected had more opportunities as they were more attacking

Gers did have a fair bit of possession at one stage but really were stuck in the middle third.

Zenit unluicky not to get a handball - penalty just on half time.

Dick "Head" Advocaat would be a happy man, and pretty smug about knocking back the Socceroos job....
