Louis lights up United’s season

Man Utd 2 Blackburn 1 (3-2 on aggr.)

Ruud van Nistelrooy and Louis Saha ensured the Red Devils confirmed their sixth appearance in the final of a tournament they have won only once.

But that hardly told the story as Van Nistelrooy also failed from the spot after Steven Reid had levelled - and then players from both sides sprinted down the tunnel to join in a bust-up which Robbie Savage appeared to spark by racing after Rio Ferdinand.
