BR - Yesterday's enthralling 1-1 at the Bernabeu will have given Manchester United a great deal of confidence ahead on the second leg at Old Trafford on Tuesday 5 March.
Although Real Madrid had plenty of the ball and missed a number of chances, United looked dangerous throughout with Robin van Persie going close on three occasions. The game see-sawed on way and then the other over an engrossing 90 minutes that was finely balanced throughout.
