Ferdinand out of Porto clash
United defender out of quarter-final first leg with groin injury

Rio Ferdinand will miss Manchester United's UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg clash with Porto at Old Trafford on Tuesday with a groin injury.

The 30-year-old watched from the stands on Sunday as United beat Aston Villa 3-2 to go back to the top of the league but the defender has not recovered in time to be considered to face the Portuguese league leaders.

The former Leeds ace has had problems in the past with his back, an injury which kept him out of the England side that beat Slovakia 4-0 in a friendly last week.

Ferdinand returned for his country's World Cup qualifying win over Ukraine days later but was withdrawn three minutes before the end.

It is believed the centre-back picked up the groin problem there and then but Sir Alex Ferguson is hopeful he will be fit for the weekend trip to Sunderland.

The Scot also explained that all the players who missed Sunday's win through injury were unlikely to feature against Porto although Nemanja Vidic, Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney are all available again after suspension.

Allyuh men is the best yes. The side ent really play a good game for 4 games now. Little shaky against Inter, Unlucky against Liverpool in the scoreline but defended horribly, outplayed for long stretches against Fulham and Villa and again, defended horribly.

Porto is a decent side (better than Fulham) and what they have is confidence from rolling everybody the Portuguese league all season. Plus they have tricky strikers who could conjure up something against the run of play. A lot will depend on O'Shea (can't see Neville getting a sweat) keeping his head on and Fletcher and Carrick keeping possession.

United should be able to beat this side both home and away but the tie not dying tonight becuase Porto good for an away goal.

edit: last 15 minutes..

you have to consider the extra 5 minutes of injury time from nowhere that the refs does give them at old trafford.

dwolfman · « **Reply #18 on:** April 07, 2009, 12:57:33 PM »

They've not had the strongest of starts, but unlike the EPL away goals count against you.

I stand corrected

Brilliant back pass from Bruno Alves to Rooney. 1-1. Two bad passes I think from Porto, this first to Alves (rather than going forward) and then Alves to the keeper. That's the game though. 15 minutes in it is 1-1.

This one going as expected. Poor defending by United but they doing well on the balance of play.

They need to start testing Porto becuase Helton is shaky.

A 2-1 or 3-1 result tonight and they good for the 2nd leg.

dwolfman · « **Reply #23 on:** April 07, 2009, 01:14:27 PM »

They are settling into a good rhythm. They're defending better, but Porto is playing a very good away game too.
